Music: Peter Gabriel
River river carry me on
Living river carry me on
River river carry me on
To the place where I come from
So deep so wide will you take me on your back for a ride
If I should fall would you swallow me deep inside
River teach me how to float
Cause I feel like I'm sinking down
I thought that I could get along
But here in this water
My feet won't touch the ground
I need something to turn myself around
Going away away toward the sea
River deep can you lift up and carry me
Oh roll on though the heartland
'Til the sun has left the sky
River river carry me high
'Til the washing of the water make it all alright
Let your waters reach me like she reached me tonight
Letting go it's so hard
The way it's hurting now
To get this love untied
It's tough to stay with thing
'Cause if I follow through
I face what I denied
I get those hooks out of me
And I take out the hooks that I sunk deep in her side
Kill that fear of emptiness loneliness I hide
River oh river river running deep
Bring me something that help me get to sleep
In the washing of the water will you take it all away
Bring me something to take this pain away
