Lyrics

This River

I?ll take my chances on the river
The road is dark behind
I?ll build a boat to sail this fever
You can wait right here

You build the arms of you perfect lover
I?ll build a paddle to steer
And if I should drown beneath black water
You can find me here

It won?t be long now, till you come around
It won?t be long now, I will wait right here

So I?ve sailed beyond the mirror
The future is clear
And these stones that way my pockets
Leave me nothing to fear

Can you fly over mountains?
Can you swim the sea?
All these troubles that you?ve grown out of
They wait for me

It won?t be long now, till you come around
It won?t be long now, I will wait right here
(Repeat)
