Raging Waters Songtext
von Al Jarreau

Everyone gets tired
In spite of plans being made
Nobody wants to slow down
This showdown is set for dawn
I′m gonna meet that villain
And tell him the race is on
I'll say that

Lovers cross the raging waters
Lovers walk the burning sand
Lovers stop the time in order
To take their moments in their hands
Lovers toss away a kingdom
Lovers abdicate the crown
Lovers fight for love and freedom
Breaking the chains
That hold ′em down


You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on
You gotta keep on
You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on
Loving lovers
You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on
You gotta keep on
You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on
Didn't I say?

Lovers cross the raging waters (raging waters)
Lovers walk the burning sand (burning sand)
Lovers stop the time in order (in order)
To take their moments in their hands (their hands)
Lovers toss away a kingdom
Lovers abdicate the crown
Lovers fight for love and freedom
Breaking the chains
That hold 'em down

You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on
You gotta keep on
You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on
Loving lovers
You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on
You gotta keep on
You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on


Everyone is frantic
The antics became bizarre
Every lost romantic′s been
Banished to some cold star
Never again expire
Be tired and given in
I′m gonna take my lover
Discover tha promised land
I'll say that

Lovers cross the raging waters
Lovers walk the burning sand
Lovers stop the time in order
To take their moments in their hands
Lovers toss away a kingdom
Lovers abdicate the crown
Lovers fight for love and freedom
Breaking the chains
That hold ′em down

You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on
You gotta keep on
You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on
Loving lovers
You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on
You gotta keep on
You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on
Changing Lovers

You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on
You gotta keep on
You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on
Loving lovers
You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on
You gotta keep on
You gotta keep on, you gotta keep on
Didn't I say?
