[Spoken Vocal]
It starts as a trickle…
Then a stream…
(Row, row, rowing downstream)
Then the edge…
And suddenly—
(After all…)
You’re over the waterfall.
[Refrain]
Rushing
(Over the waterfall)
One with gushing
(Falling overall)
[Verse 1]
Water gathers, running fast
Moving forward, flowing past
Every drop becomes a part
Of a river with a beating heart
Down the channel, round the bend
Wonder where the currents end
Hear the roar and feel the spray
Nothing’s gonna stop the way
[Pre-Chorus]
Flow!
(Keep flowing)
Rush!
(Keep going)
Down!
(Down!)
Over!
(The fall!)
[Chorus]
Rushing
(Over the waterfall)
One with gushing
(Falling overall)
Falling
(Down and down)
Calling
(Feel the sound)
Round and round
(The water turns)
Energy
(The current burns)
Over the waterfall
(Here we go)
One with gushing
(Down below)
[Verse 2]
Gravity becomes the guide
Pulling us along for the ride
Potential turns to motion there
Energy exploding through the air
Mist is rising, thunder grows
River rushing as it goes
What was waiting at the top
Has become a moving drop
[Instrumental]
[Electric Guitar Solo: Fluid Blues-Rock Lead, Rolling Bass, Thunderous Drums, Organ Swells, Synth Arpeggios]
[Bridge]
Over!
(Over!)
The edge!
(The edge!)
No turning!
(No turning!)
Once you pledge!
Down!
(Down!)
We fall!
(We fall!)
One with the water!
(One with it all!)
[Breakdown]
[Drums Drop Out: Acoustic Guitar, Deep Bass, Water and Thunder FX]
Listen…
The roar…
The rush…
The fall…
(Heed the call)
[Final Refrain]
Rushing
(Over the waterfall)
One with gushing
(Falling overall)
[Final Chorus]
Rushing
(Over the waterfall)
One with gushing
(Falling overall)
Flowing
(Down the wall)
Kowing
(Through it all)
Gravity
(Takes the call)
Energy
(Feeds the fall)
Rushing
(Over the waterfall)
One with gushing
(Falling overall)
[Outro]
[Instrumental Outro: Rolling Drums, Acoustic Guitar, Electric Guitar Echoes, Deep Bass, Flowing Synth]
Rushing…
Gushing…
Falling…
Overall…
Over…
The waterfall.
