Lyrics

[Chorus]
Oh, the river, she runs wide with currents swift and deep
The summer sun reflectin' on the secrets that she keeps
And a fool could see her runnin' past
Her shinin' face as smooth as glass
And never think to ask her why she weeps
Then wonder why she's nothin' he can keep
[Verse 1]
Oh, a steady hand can build a dam to hold her for a while
And wonder at the beauty of the sadness in her smile
But first come clouds and then the rain
And then she's runnin' fast again
And he don't understand the reasons why
But at least the fool can hold on to his pride
[Chorus]
Oh, the river, she runs wild and fast and strong and free
Flowin' down the mountainside beneath the evergreen
To carve the stone and eat the rain
And wind her way down through the plains
And leave the things that she don't need behind
And slip into the sea
