|
River, river carry me on |
|
Living river carry me on |
|
River, river carry me on |
|
To the place where I come from |
|
So deep, so wide, will you take me on your back for a ride |
|
If I should fall, would you swallow me deep inside |
|
River, show me how to float |
|
I feel like I'm sinking down |
|
Thought that I could get along |
|
But here in this water |
|
My feet won't touch the ground |
|
I need something to turn myself around |
|
Going away, away towards the sea |
|
River deep, can you lift up and carry me |
|
Oh roll on though the heartland |
|
'Til the sun has left the sky |
|
River, river carry me high |
|
'Til the washing of the water make it all alright |
|
Let your waters reach me like she reached me tonight |
|
Letting go, it's so hard |
|
The way it's hurting now |
|
To get this love untied |
|
So tough to stay with thing |
|
'Cause if I follow through |
|
I face what I denied |
|
I get those hooks out of me |
|
And I take out the hooks that I sunk deep in your side |
|
Kill that fear of emptiness, loneliness I hide |
|
River, oh river, river running deep |
|
Bring me something that will let me get to sleep |
|
In the washing of the water will you take it all away |
|
Bring me something to take this pain away |
