Breathe, breathe
What his lung saying begs him to scream,
Scream is what James wants
But he can't be seen,
Seen by the boys,
Sleeping boys in their dreams
Dreams on the banks of a riverbed
They would have saved him
If he could wake them
Sleep through the midnight
This night won't leave
Deep, deep is the river
That's under his feet,
Feet, dangling dark
In the night but no sleep
Sleep won't consume
For this God-fearing boy
Who's stuck in the cold fog of
December trees
They would have saved him
If he could wake them
Sleep through the midnight
This night won't leave
They would have saved him
If he could wake them
Sleep through the midnight
This night won't fall
Fall comes the rain down and wakes up them all,
All they can see is James' boots and they crawl
Crawl down the steep river's edge,
Slipping right past him
That's where they screamed
James, James,
Get out of the water
Please, please,
Don't go down
No farther,
There's rapids up ahead
In this valley's bend
Please, James
James, James,
Get out of the water
Please, please,
Don't go down
No farther,
There's rapids up ahead
In this valley's bend
Please, James
They would have saved him
If he could wake them
Sleep through the midnight
This night won't...
They would have saved him
If he could wake them
Sleep through the midnight
This night won't...
James, James,
Get out of the water
Please, please,
Don't go down
No farther,
There's rapids up ahead
In this valley's bend
Please, James
James, James,
Get out of the water
Please, please,
Don't go down
No farther,
There's rapids up ahead
In this valley's bend
James, James,
Get out of the water
Please, please,
Don't go down
No farther,
There's rapids up ahead
In this valley's bend
Please, James
