I can be your river rat, and guide you through the water
Build a habitat, and stay cool in that current when it's hotter
Bring me under the surface, and help me invert this
I've been watching you flirt with our purpose
I know you've got the courage, I know you deserve it
So cut your ties to the permanence
You've got the mind, got the soul
Got my heart in a basket
You've caught my eye, caught the train
Caught me falling in gladness
One too many times
Tell me, baby, have you seen the signs?
I can be your river rat, and guide you through the water
Build a habitat, and stay cool in that current when it's hotter
Hold a hand to the current, let the water assure it
Don't let tension deter you, you'll pull through
Try to match the ripples to raindrops
Sit at the bridge where the train stops
Have a toy with your forethought
You've got the charm, got the spark
Got them around your finger
You've caught my sight, let me write
Let me capture and linger
Long as I might like
Let me prove you right
I can be your river rat, and guide you through the water
Build a habitat, and stay cool in that current when it's hotter
