Lyrics
Rivers
so your soul has coming a calling, you say
and you feel you've got to hit the highway
seventeen months in a house and we're still in our groove
and yet you are saying it's something you just have to do
I won't tell you not to go
I won't tell you not to stay
you can believe what you want
it isn't the time for my answers anyway
rivers must flow where they're bound for
and so you will get out on the road
I won't hold you back, I remember
you once said, "to the sea, fear is nothing at all"
baby it's alright, baby I can see
baby even common sense decrees
if you don't know you,
there certainly can be no you and me
I won't say you're wrong, I won't call your name
one thing this heart has learned, to let go,
I have to change
chorus
nothing at all, I can grow some
love is strong and
I AM AN OCEAN
you will still return to me
you will still return to me
