City by a River Songtext
von Mark Bryan

If I should ever wander
Just to try and get a taste
Take the next train going somewhere
Far away from this place
Down roads already traveled
Thinking I might get away
Would you remind me? Would you remind me?
Remind me

There′s a city by a river
It's as far as I wanna go
Take your dreams down to the river
Drop ′em in and watch 'em float
Drop 'em in and watch ′em float


I dreamt the sun was hiding
When the dawn came up today
You walked the road beside me
Every step along my way
And if I should wake tomorrow
To a sky that′s dull and gray
Would you remind me that you're behind me?
Remind me

There′s a city by a river
It's as far as I wanna go
Take your dreams down to the river
Drop ′em in and watch 'em float

Little sister, up and gone
She cried herself a little river
All our dreams flowed downstream
And in the ocean come together

There′s a dream that's gone forever
Held under by the falls
Was it a brilliant worthy vision?
Or just a thought no one recalls?
Would you remind me that it's inside me?
Remind me


There′s a city by a river
It′s as far as I wanna go
Take your dreams down to the river
Drop 'em in and watch ′em float
Drop 'em in and watch ′em float
Drop 'em in and watch ′em float
Drop 'em in and watch 'em float
