Walk Me to the River

Heard that river running

Calling out through the night

It's funny how the little things

Hide the large ones out of sight

Same old jokes getting worn out

And I've not got much to lose

It's a little too late, I've come too far

To ask me now to choose

Walk me to the river

We stand beside the banks

Come on and swim beside me, love

Never turning back

We wash away the tears

The hurting and the fears

Come on and swim beside me, love

Never turning back

Felt those drums a-beating

Ringing out through the quiet

I marched along as best I could

Gave it all my might

But falling in line's not easy

When your head's up in the clouds

I shine my light as best I can

On this road, you can't plan

Walk me to the river

We stand beside the banks

Come on and swim beside me, love

Never turning back

We wash away the tears

The hurting and the fears

Come on and swim beside me, love

Never turning back

We might find ourselves free-falling

That's okay

Keep a cool head and lay low

Isn't that what they say?

The future's ours to take someday

So, why not now?

So, why not now?

Walk me to the river

We stand beside the banks

Come on and swim beside me, love

Never turning back

We wash away the tears

The hurting and the fears

Come on and swim beside me, love

Never turning back

Walk me to the river

We stand beside the banks

Come on and swim beside me, love

Never turning back

We wash away the tears

The hurting and the fears

Come on and swim beside me, love

Never turning back
