Songs About / On: RIVER

I want to wake up and know where I’m going
Say I’m ready
Say I’m ready

I want to go where the rivers are overflowing and
I’ll be ready
I’ll be ready to let the rivers wash over me
I’m ready to let the rivers wash over me read more »

Livin' and dreamin'
in aworld full of fear
Playin' with feelings
that carried' me here
today

Lost in the memories
of days gone by
Runnin' on empty
and the wells run dry
today
it's so far away
that I could fade away read more »

I've been around and I'm just wishing on a star
I've travelled a long ways but I've never been this far
I've seen the world with my eyes never did I know
But I'm gonna find a way no matter what they say

In the rivers of joy hallelujah joy - I believe
In the rivers of joy hallelujah joy - I will find
In the rivers of joy hallelujah joy - all the happiness
In the rivers of joy hallelujah joy - of the world

I've been around and I'm just wishing on a star
I've travelled long ways but I've never been this far
I've seen the world with my eyes never did I know
But I'm gonna find a way no matter what they say

There are times when I just wanna lay down on the ground
And never rise again no matter what's been found
But then I realise I have to carry on
And I try to move along to the rivers full of joy

In the rivers of joy hallelujah joy - I believe
In the rivers of joy hallelujah joy - I will find
In the rivers of joy hallelujah joy - all the happiness
In the rivers of joy hallelujah joy - of the world

So many people pass me by without a sign
I try to catch them but I don't know if it's right
As far as I can see I still got much to learn
I have to find a way no matter what they say

It's time to wake up now 'cause much is still undone
I made up my mind and nothing gets me down
And I won't stop this time until I'm really through
I have to move along to the rivers full of joy

In the rivers of joy hallelujah joy - I believe
In the rivers of joy hallelujah joy - I will find
In the rivers of joy hallelujah joy - all the happiness
In the rivers of joy hallelujah joy - of the world

In the rivers of joy
Rivers of joy oh

And now when I know myself
I see it all so clear there's nothing more to fear yeah

You can find joy and happiness
No matter what storm you come across
So hear me when I say you're here to stay
Hold on tight and I'll be right
You can find joy and happiness
No matter what storm just happiness
You just take a look deep down in the rivers of joy

In the rivers of joy joy - the rivers of joy
In the rivers of joy joy
In the rivers of joy joy - hey
In the rivers of joy joy

In the rivers of joy halleluja
In the rivers of joy
In the rivers of joy hallelujah joy - all the happiness
Hallelujah joy - of the world
In the rivers of joy

River roll on
Wish I could be like you
No looking back
And no heart that breaks in two
You'll never now read more »

Up a lazy river by the old mill stream
That lazy, hazy river where we both can dream
Linger in the shade of an old oak tree
Throw away your troubles, dream a dream with me read more »

There's a river
a river

a Muddy
Muddy River read more »

Well I first kissed you on a hollow log
Down by the river they call the dog
We fell in love and we vowed that day
Like the flow of the river our love won’t change
Well we married that spring and we built a house
On the bank of the river where the rock juts out
Now the river’s still here but you’re long gone
You left me and the river here all alone read more »

I was lookin' back on faded dreams from yesturday
Like a brush from my past they painted the evening sky
But the currents so strong, I couldn't hold on
They kept rollin' by
And all the colors bled into a river of time read more »

You cry the long night through
Well, you can cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you read more »

Way back in shady lane
Do you remember darlin’? read more »
