Lyrics

There is a river near and I will take you down there
The fishermen they come and go, cast their lines with a prayer

Sitting down on a patch of grass, think about what you said
Pick my spirits up and let them go, drop them to the riverbed

Can’t look too far, when all I need is here
There is a river near and I will take you down there

By the water’s edge, all hope is gained
We came to see the river

All the roads I have travelled on and they all just lead here
Don’t look back, hold your head up high, let your doubts disappear

Where do you go? When the lights go out
Give yourself to the ebb and flow and replace all your fear

By the water’s edge, all hope is gained
We came to see the river
