River in the rain
Sometimes at night, you look like a long white train
Winding your way away somewhere
River, I love you don't you care
If you're on the run
Winding someplace just trying to find the sun
Whether the sunshine, whether the rain
River, I love you just the same
But sometimes in a time of trouble
When you're out of hand and your muddy bubbles roll across my floor
Carrying away the things I treasure
No, there ain't no way to measure why I love you more
Than I did the day before
River in the rain
Sometimes at night, you look like a long white train
Winding your way away from me
River, I've never seen the sea
But sometimes in a time of trouble
When you're out of hand and your muddy bubbles roll across my floor
Hey hey, carrying away the things I treasure
Hell, there ain't no way to measure why I love you more
Than I did the day before
River in the rain
Sometimes at night, you look like a long white train
Winding your way away from me
River, I've never seen the sea
