The River Songtext
von Kix Brooks

When I was seventeen
With a new world to discover
Love was swift and shallow
So easy to get over
Like a tiny mountain stream
It was cool, it was clean
And I got my feet wet
But I still hadn′t seen the river

I might have drifted on forever
But I found you instead
And I fell like a waterfall
In over my head
And it was warm, it was deep
It was something I could keep
And I won't forget the day
We were swept away by the river


Yeah, we′ve seen it overflow
And we've seen it running low
And we almost hit bottom
But we never let go
It's always you and me
On our journey to the sea
The river

There′s a full moon on the water
And another in the sky
And the stars shine down like diamonds
Sparkle like your eyes
And I can′t help but thinking
Holding you tonight
It's like the first time
We lay down beside the river

Yeah, we′ve seen it overflow
And we've seen it running low
And we almost hit bottom
But we never let go
It′s always you and me
On our journey to the sea
The river
It's always you and me
On our journey to the sea
The river
