Lyrics River - The Boxer Rebellion

River

Change direction
Take me to golden sands
Surrender my worries to an unseen promised land
Wish I’d sheltered my blessings
Even a drunken sore head
Even idle lovers
Who I know wish I was dead
And I used to sit by the river
Hoping one day it would lead me to the sea
And I used to sit by the river
Knowing one day it would lead me to my dreams
Fear of sadness
Fear of a broken heart
I held back on a gamble
I assumed would only fall apart
And I used to sit by the river
Hoping one day it would lead me to the sea
And I used to sit by the river
Knowing one day it would lead me to my dreams
Can you reach me?
Can you reach me?
And I used to sit by the river
Hoping one day it would lead me to the sea
And I used to sit by the river
Knowing one day it would lead me to my dreams
Knowing one day it would lead me to my dreams
Knowing one day it would lead me to my dreams
Knowing one day it would lead me to my dreams
