River

Lyrics

River full of stones when there's no rain
 River full and rushing when the clouds let loose again
 River every season like a prayer
 We're standing in the shallows making crosses in the air
 Want to build the strongest bridge
 Want to love you the best I can
 Feel no fear upon the edge
 Here's my heart, baby take my hand
 River like a poem to the trees
 River telling stories to the rushes and the leaves
 River every season like a vow
 We're standing in the shallows wondering who will save us now
 Want to build the strongest bridge
 Want to love you the best I can
 Feel no fear upon the edge
 Here's my heart, baby take my hand
 River from the currents to the pools
 River turning kinder turning suddenly too cruel
 River every season like a dream
 We're standing in the shallows wading in to wash us clean
 Want to build the strongest bridge
 Want to love you the best I can
 Feel no fear upon the edge
 Here's my heart, baby take my hand
 Want to build the strongest bridge
 Want to love you the best I can
 Feel no fear upon the edge
 Here's my heart, baby take my hand
 Want to hold you close to me, never fail you, never falter
 Seeing all that love can see, reflecting back on the water...
