All that I have is a river

The river is always my home

Lord, take me aw ay for I just cannot stay

Or I'll sink in my skin and my bones

The water su stains me wi thout even trying

The water can't d rown me, I'm done

With my dyy... ing

Please help me build a small boat

One that'll ride on the fl ow

Where the river runs deep, and the larger fish creep

I'm glad of what keeps me a float

The water su stains me wi thout even trying

The water can't d rown me, I'm done

With my dyy... ing

Now deeper the water I sail

And faster the current I'm in

But each night brings the stars

And the song in my heart

Is a tune for the journeyman's tale

The water su stains me wi thout even trying

The water can't d rown me, I'm done

With my dyy... ing

Now the land that I knew is a dr eam

And the line on the distance grows f aint

So wide is my river, the ho rizon a sliver

The artist has run out of paint

Where the bl ue of the sea meets the sky

And the bi g yellow sun leads me home

I'm everywhere now, the w ay is a vow

To the wind of each breath by and by

The water sus tains me wit hout even trying

The water can't d rown me, I'm done

With my dyy... ing...
