The River - Garth Brooks
The River--Garth Brooks
You know a drean is like a river
Ever changing as it flows
And a dreamer's just a vessel
That must follow where it goes
Trying to learn from what's behind you
And never knowing what's in store
Makes each day a constant battle
Just to stay between the shores...and
Chorus:
I will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry
Like a bird upon the wind
These waters are my sky
I'll never reach my destination
If I never try
So I will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry
Too many times we stand aside
And let the waters slip away
'Til what we put off 'til tommorow
Has now become today
So don't you sit upon the shoreline
And say your satisfied
Choose to chance the rapids
And dare to dance the tide...yes
Repeat Chorus
And there's bound to be rough waters
And I know I'll take some falls
But with the good Lord as my captain
I can make it through them all..yes
Repeat Chorus
Yes, I will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry
'Til the river runs dry
