Blake Gorman - Down by the River Lyrics

Down by the river
One thing's for certain
Nothing will stop its flow
No change in the seasons
No natural reasons
Could ever halt its course

Down by the river
I knew it from reason
Some things are not to be touched
Or fall into hands
Who prove not to trust
Pricing this outlived gem

And the river leads down to the grander places
In a greater picture of life
And the river grows tide after tide
And ends with the power of a wave

Down by the river
I've seen it in ruins
Dried out from the winter days
Then in the summer
Levels marked high
You cannot see the other side

Down by the river
Is where I would take you
And forget all of yesterday
Immerse in the moment
Let go of the rest
In time, we'll be at our best
At that time we will sit by the river
And I'll only side with you

And the river leads down to the grander places
In a greater picture of life
And the river grows tide after tide
And ends with the power of a wave
