Lyrics
***river running wild, running free, running strong
river running wide, run with me, drift along.
can i drift along, drift along
can i drift along, drift along
can i drift along, drift along
I'VE BEEN A WONDERER
DRIFTING IN AND OUT OF LIFE
SEARCHING FOR THE ANSWERS
TO CURE THE PAIN INSIDE.
I'VE BEEN A POET,
TRIED TO FIND LIFE'S REAL WORTH
STRINGING WORDS TOGETHER
TO COVER UP THE HURT
river...your where i find my peace...oh river.. ***
I'VE BEEN A GAMBLER
AND PLAYED LIFE'S TOUGHEST GAME
DELT TO FROM A CROOKED DECK
AND WALKED AWAY IN SHAME
I'VE BEEN A SINNER,
BROKEN ALL THE HOLY RULES
I'LL NEVER FIND MY HEAVEN,
WITH THIS FURY OF A FOOL
