Lyrics

[00:08.511] Isn't she a river?
[00:16.063] She doesn’t need a diamond to shine
[00:24.114] You can't really have her
[00:31.709] But you can hold her for a time
[00:40.128] Takes an army just to bend her
[00:44.071] Be careful where you stand her
[00:48.733] You can't hold her back for long
[00:55.095] The river is just too strong
[01:03.779] She’s a river
[01:06.132]
[01:17.898] Arms made out of silver
[01:26.247] Moving in a crooked line
[01:33.736] Carrying some dreamer
[01:41.860] Off into the end of time
[01:50.656] You don't need to save her
[01:53.653] Or teach her to behave
[01:56.966] Just let her on some line
[02:04.405] Ever-changing and undefined
[02:13.730] She's a river
[02:18.190]
[02:21.024] You can ride easy when she's slow
[02:25.409] Run across her when she's low
[02:29.567] Follow wherever she goes
[02:33.137] She's a river
[02:37.261] Run for cover when she's mad
[02:40.085] Drown in her tears when days are bad
[02:44.740] Don't you ever forget it though
[02:47.874] She's a river
[02:50.942]
[03:45.764] Isn’t she a river?
[03:52.959] She doesn’t need a diamond to shine
[04:01.343] So people call you clever
[04:09.290] But she's been a here a long, long time
[04:17.302] And she’s seen so many faces
[04:21.253] And places down the line
[04:25.345] She's been left for dead a million times
[04:29.295] Keeps coming home, arms open wide
[04:33.265] Ever-changing and undefined
[04:41.418] She's a river
[04:45.745]
[04:56.888] She's a river
[05:02.982]
[05:13.820] She’s a river
