River

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
