Clearer View Lyrics - Palace Of Gold - Blue Rodeo

I know when they built this house 

Out of rocks from the river mouth 

They thought it'd never come down 

Not while we're around 

Some things are made to last 

Other things we know must pass 

Nothing we do 

Stops time coming through 

My father left me here with a map crumpled in my hand 

I try to follow, but there's days when I just don't understand 

And when we fall down in time 

washed in trouble we thought we'd left behind 

Just let the river carry you 

Lift your head back up to the clearer view 

See the high water starting to flood 

Bringing down all the rocks and the mud 

And if it won't stop 

It'll wash away all we've got 

Down in the valley there's a rumble in the trees 

It's hard to keep your head when the ground's moving 'neath your feet 

And when we fall down in time 

Washed in trouble we thought we'd left behind 

Let the storm pass on through 

And work your way back up to the clearer view
