River

(album: Walking Disaster - 2018)

Sometimes life gets between all the plans that you're making
And then in a moment, suddenly everything's changing
And you never could be ready for it
It's living and you can't ignore it

You were a phone call away at the end of a long day
I still have your voice on my phone saying, "See you on Monday"
I never could be ready for it
And suddenly the rain is pouring

Looking up to the sky
And I don't know why

But I'm gonna send love down the river
Tie it to a ribbon so it can fly
And put it on a sailboat
When the wind will blow, I'll love to say goodbye

Well, life's about living and losing and hoping and praying
Well, it's about searching for something and putting your faith in
And I always will be better for it
I don't know who I was before it

I look up to the sky
Well, even when I don't know why

And I'm gonna send love down the river
Tie it to a ribbon so it can fly
And put it on a sailboat
When the wind will blow, I'll love to say goodbye

We all roll on, roll away
Like waves, we almost break
Like tides, we'll drift again
Don't hold on for heaven's sake
As much as I am wanting you to stay

No, I'm gonna send love down the river
Tie it to a ribbon so it can fly
And put it on a sailboat
When the wind will blow, I'll love to say
And I'm gonna send love down the river
Tie it to a ribbon so it can fly
And put it on a sailboat
When the wind will blow, I'll love to say goodbye
When the wind will blow, I'll love to say goodbye
