River - Jonny Lang

I know the river is wide, Our chances are slim

But this is where it all begins

Standing here on the shore, with just our lives

And nothing left to lose again

I know the water is crushing all around you

You’re soaking wet with the threat, it just might drown you

But we both know what we gotta do

We could run, we could hide, we could stand and fight

I know the river is wide, I know the river is wide

Take my hand we’re gonna walk on the water tonight

I know it’s waiting, waiting on the other side

I can feel it, inside.

I can see it, tonight

Girl we’ve been trapped on the banks, for far way to long now

And I think that we both know, the only way is to leave this solid ground now

Make a break for other shores

There’s nothing we left behind worth holding on to

I’m sick of just getting by, and truth be known, you are too

Now we both know what we gotta do

Can’t you feel it, inside

Can’t see it, tonight

Oooo

Oooo

Oooo

Girl we didn’t come all this way, to turn around now

And I think it’s time we both leave this hallowed ground, how about now

Take my hand baby don’t turn around

We could run, we could hide, we could stand and fight

I know the river is wide, I know the river is wide

Take my hand we’re gonna walk on the water tonight

Come on baby, let’s walk on the water tonight

I can feel it, inside.

Can’t you see it tonight

Can’t you see it, tonight.

I can feel it, tonight
