Run Like a River
Thought i saw my savior
Sitting on the lawn
But then his daddy shot him and he said whats goin on
He taught me how to slow dance
He taught me how to love
And when he died there went the one I dreamed of
Well I left home bout a year ago
I didn't want anyone else to know
All things come to a mouth at the end
The mississippi river with never bend
So I'll run - run like a river - run like a river to the sea
I didn't want to stay there I didn't want to hide
I wanted to swim the river buts it's too wide
All the dreams forgotten
All the hopes removed
Well there went Marvin with my lonely heart groove
Well i left home bout a week ago
I didn't want anyone else to know
All things come to a mouth at the end
The mississippi river with never bend
So I'll run - run like a river - run like a river to the sea
Solo
Well i left home bout a day ago
I didn't want anyone else to know
All things come to a rock at the end
The Pontchatoula river with never bend
So I'll run - run like a river - run like a river to the sea
Sitting on the lawn
But then his daddy shot him and he said whats goin on
He taught me how to slow dance
He taught me how to love
And when he died there went the one I dreamed of
Well I left home bout a year ago
I didn't want anyone else to know
All things come to a mouth at the end
The mississippi river with never bend
So I'll run - run like a river - run like a river to the sea
I didn't want to stay there I didn't want to hide
I wanted to swim the river buts it's too wide
All the dreams forgotten
All the hopes removed
Well there went Marvin with my lonely heart groove
Well i left home bout a week ago
I didn't want anyone else to know
All things come to a mouth at the end
The mississippi river with never bend
So I'll run - run like a river - run like a river to the sea
Solo
Well i left home bout a day ago
I didn't want anyone else to know
All things come to a rock at the end
The Pontchatoula river with never bend
So I'll run - run like a river - run like a river to the sea
