The River Lyrics

[Intro]

Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh

Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh

Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh

Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh



Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh

Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh

Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh

Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh



[Verse 1]

I went down by the river

Where a dreamer goes to dream

Eyes on the vortex

The current's timeless seam

I heard a cry down by the river

A spirit in the summer moon

Did the savage dark water

Consume another soul too soon



[Chorus]

River keep arollin', rollin' cold and rollin' free

River keep arollin', rollin' to the deep dark sea

River keep arollin', roll right over me

Rollin', yeah



[Verse 2]

I went down by the river

I saw the footprints in the sand

Leading to nowhere

I guess I'll never understand

Maybe I crave a nightmare

To be in the middle of

Or maybe I'm searching

For waters I can rise above



[Chorus]

River keep arollin', rollin' cold and rollin' free

River keep arollin', rollin' to the deep dark sea

River keep arollin', roll right over me

Rollin', yeah, oh



[Bridge]

One more time my heart stops beatin'

One more time my soul starts feelin'

This ain't real, this ain't right

I'm wipin' my eyes, it's gonna be alright



Hey, down by the river there's a mystery

Down by the river, now come on and see

And if it's real I'll hold you tight

Open your eyes it's gonna be alright (Yeah, it's gonna be alright)



[Chorus]

River keep arollin', rollin' cold and rollin' free

River keep arollin', rollin' to the deep dark sea

River keep arollin', roll right over me

Rollin', yeah, eh yeah



[Outro]

Rollin' (River keep rollin', roll, roll on)

Rollin' (Roll on, roll on, roll, roll on)
