Down by the water where the sun meets the sky I feel the breeze, let my worries fly Feet in the sand, heart running free Whispers of the river calling me I’ve been walking roads so long and wide Now I let the current be my guide River carry me, take me home tonight Wash away the pain, make my spirit light Flowing like a dream, wild and free Oh river, won’t you carry me Mountains behind me, oceans ahead All of the words I never said Drift in the waves, fade in the blue Every drop feels like something new I release the chains I used to hold Let the water turn my soul to gold River carry me, take me home tonight Wash away the pain, make my spirit light Flowing like a dream, wild and free Oh river, won’t you carry me No more fear, no more fight Just the moon and stars tonight In your arms I finally see Who I am supposed to be River carry me, don’t let me drown Lift me up when I’m falling down Through the dark into the sea Oh river, forever carry me
