Let That River Run

I wish my blues were like a leaf on a tree
Letting loose on a warm summer breeze
Somewhere near an old riverbank
Soon to be carried away

On some - went a lost 'er, muddy water
Rollin' all the way to the sea, please...

Let that river run
Now that she's leavin', and it can't be undone
Let it take the hurt so far away
It'll be a Jonny Nash, bright-bright sun shinny day
Now that I know that she's not the one
Yeah, let that river run

Sittin' in this house we called home
Wishin' the blues were already gone
And I was skippin' rocks under a great big sky
Waving to my blues as they drifted on by

On some - done forgot 'er, muddy water
Rollin' all the way to the sea, please...

Let that river run
Now that it's over, and it can't be undone
Let it take the hurt so far away
It'll be an alright, bright-bright sun shinny day
Now that I know that she's not the one
Yeah, let that river run

With a little luck, when the sun goes down
They'll drift off somewhere and never be found

Let that river run
Now that it's over, and it can't be undone
When those blues are an ocean away
It'll be a brand-new, bright-bright sun shinny day
Now that I know that she's not the one
Let that river run
Yeah, now that I know that she's not the one
Let that river run
Let that river run
