River |
Isn’t she a river? |
Doesn’t need a diamond to shine |
You can’t really have her |
But you can hold her for a time |
Takes an army just to bend her |
Be careful where you send her |
Cause you can’t hold her back for long |
A river is just too strong |
And she’s a river |
Arms made out of silver |
Moving in a crooked line |
Carrying some dreamers |
Off into the end of time |
You don’t need to save her |
Or teach her to behave |
Just let her arms unwind |
Ever changing and undefined |
She’s a river |
You can ride her easy when she’s slow |
Walk across her when she’s low |
Follow wherever she goes |
She’s a river |
Run for cover when she’s mad |
Drown in her tears when things are bad |
Don’t you ever forget it that |
She’s a river |
Isn’t she a river? |
Doesn’t need a diamond to shine |
So people call you clever |
But she’s been here a long, long time |
And she’s seen so many faces |
And places down the line |
Been left for dead a million times |
Keeps coming home |
Arms open wide |
Ever changing and undefined |
She’s a river |
