What you gonna do when the flames grow

What you gonna do when the waters flow

What you gonna do when the…no one knows

What you gonna do when the tide comes in

What you gonna do when the air is thin

What you gonna do when the crops don’t grow

What you gonna do when the…no one knows

Keep your oars in the water

Keep your oars in the water

As it occurs to me

Love it feels calling

Could North be far away

What you gonna do when the sun goes down

What you gonna do when up is underground

What you gonna do when the fires burn

What you gonna do when the seas are dead

What you gonna do when the air turns red

What you gonna do when the lava churns

What you gonna do when it all just turns

Keep your oars in the water

Keep your oars in the water

As it occurs to me

Love it feels calling me

Could North be far away
