It was a wild idea to start
We were lost in an hour
Everything came apart
In the middle of nowhere
Oh man and look where we are

I know your teeth are shut and proud
But there are rhythms in the city
Make your head feel loud
Uh-huh so get it out, get it out

You are a long ways up river from home
Right here this water is mean
But it's the same as your own
Better swim for your life
It's both at the same time

It was a wild idea to start
A drip on the head got it wet in the heart
And it looked just like a river but was a freeway in the dark
Oh in the dark
Oh were you always so ready oh
Oh were you always so ready oh
I never want to call it off
I never want to call it off oh
I've never been that ready
I never want to call it off
I never want to call it off oh
I've never been this ready
In my life
