The wine may have gone sour 
But you can't blame the band 
Like you can't blame the locusts 
For drought on the land 
You can't blame the sea '
Cause it's full of your tears 
And you can't blame me 
For wanting you here 
There's a fork in the river 
No time to think twice 
A change in the weather 
So keep close at night 
A hissing in the wood pile 
A voice on the wind 
A fork in the river 
Is where we begin 
I once found a rainbow 
Lyin' flat on the ground 
But I just kept walkin' 
Thinking more were around 
The buzzard, the joker 
The beggar, the throne 
The roses, the sugar 
No safe passage home 
There's a fork in the river 
No time to think twice 
A change in the weather 
So keep close an eye 
A hissing in the wood pile 
A voice on the wind 
A fork in the river 
Is where we begin 
A fork in the river 
No time to think twice 
A change in the weather 
So keep close an eye 
A hissing in the wood pile 
A voice on the wind 
A fork in the river 
Is where we begin 
A fork in the river 
Is where we begin 
A fork in the river 
Is where we begin
