The River

from KING SPARROW by King Sparrow

lyrics

oh, heaven knows i would meet you across the river.
and tune your voice. with you i would talk forever.
and know that when the sail hits the wind
we’re taking off. if only we would stay awake.

you challenge the minds that bring you down.
you talk through the night and turn me ‘round.
what once was lost now clearly found.
you tell those tales of glory. gloria.

heaven knows i’ve tried to be here and across the river. and tune your voice my darling.
with you i would sing forever.
and know that when the sail hits the wind
oh we’re taking off. if only we would stay awake.

you challenge the minds that bring you down.
you talk through the night and turn me ‘round.
what once was lost now clearly found.
you tell those tales of glory. gloria.

heaven knows i’ve tried to be here and across the river.
and tune your voice my darling
with you i would see in colors.
and know that when the sail hits the wind
oh we’re taking off. if only we could stay awake.
