More Understanding Than a Man

I can sit by the river in the shade of a tree
I can sob when I'm lonely, I can sing when I'm free

And I know that the river wants to listen to me
For she's more understanding than a man

I can come to the river when the twilight is new
I can laugh when I'm happy, I can cry when I'm blue

And I know that the river sees my own point of view
For she's more understanding than a man

They say that love is something that is simply grand
Who needs it when you know it doesn't understand?

I can walk by the river in the cool summer breeze
I can dream in the silence, I can speak when I please
And I know that the river comprehends what she sees
For she's more understanding than a man
I can walk by the river in the cool summer breeze
I can dream in the silence, I can speak when I please
And I know that the river comprehends what she sees
For she's more understanding than a man
For she's more understanding than a man
