Willie Nile - If I Was a River

If I Was a River

If I was a river I'd carry you home
And roll you in my arms so you won't be alone
I would wash away your tears cut you diamonds from the stone
If I was a river I would carry you home

If I was a mountain I'd stand by your side
I would be there in dark a place where you could hide
I would guard you from the storm and my path would be your guide
If I was a mountain I would stand by your side

If I was an ocean I'd lie in the sun
I would open up the wave and let the rivers run
I would welcome all the seas 'till the waters became one
If I was an ocean I would lie in the sun

Wade in water blessed by the sea
Wade in water come go there with me

If I was a forest I would bow down my head
I would stand back in the shadows and let you go instead
I would offer you some shade I would offer you my bed
If I was a forest I would bow down my head

If I was a free man I would walk to the sea
I would sever every chain until all man were free
I would open every door so that all blind men could see
If I was a free man I would want you with me

If I was a river I'd carry you home
I would roll you in my arms so you won't be alone
I would wash away your tears cut you diamonds from the stone
If I was a river I'd carry you home
If I was a river I'd carry you home
