[Verse 1] The river stands in front of me Fast and full of teeth It pulls at the stones below And it calls my name I feel a shadow at my back Like a hand I can't shake I hold my breath, I hold my ground But my feet still wait [Pre-Chorus] Then I turn And I can't look long White like fire White so strong I hide my eyes With both my hands And in the glare He makes his stand [Chorus] Malina, cross over Malina, cross over Don't wait here anymore Cross over Malina, cross over Malina, cross over The water can't keep you Cross over [Verse 2] He wears no iron, no crown, no blade Just a robe of light I can't see his face at all Only burning white And the river roars below my knees Like it knows my fear But his voice cuts clean through the flood And it lands like clear [Pre-Chorus] What are you waiting for? He says my name The rush behind me Starts to fade I shake, I break I step toward him His light is sharp But I go in [Chorus] Malina, cross over Malina, cross over Don't wait here anymore Cross over Malina, cross over Malina, cross over The water can't keep you Cross over [Bridge] I was made for this crossing Made for this breath Made to leave the old shore Made to forget One more step And the dark won't win One more step And I'm safe within [Final Chorus] Malina, cross over Malina, cross over Don't wait here anymore Cross over Malina, cross over Malina, cross over The water can't keep you Cross over Malina, cross over Malina, cross over I hear him call me through Cross over
