River Songtext
von Sandi Thom

It′s coming on Christmas, they're cutting down trees
They′re putting up reindeer and singing songs of joy and peace
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on

But it don't snow here, it stays pretty green
I'm gonna make a lot of money, and I′m gonna quit this scene
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on

I wish I had a river so long, I would teach my feet how to fly
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I made my baby cry


He tried hard to help me, you know, he put me at ease
And he loved me, so naughty made me weak in the knees
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on

Yes, I′m so hard to handle, and I'm selfish, and I′m sad
I've gone and lost the best baby that I ever had
I wish I had a river I could skate away on

Oh, I wish I had a river so long, I would teach my feet how to fly
I wish I had a river, I could skate away on, oh-oh
I′ll made my baby say goodbye

It's coming on Christmas, they′re cutting down trees
They're putting up the reindeer and singing songs of joy and peace
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
