Patty Griffin - River Lyrics
Official




Isn't she a river?
She doesn't need a diamond to shine
You can't really have her
But you can hold her for a time
Takes an army just to bend her, be careful where you send her
You can't hold her back for long
The river is just too strong
She's a river

Arms made out of silver
Moving in a crooked line
Carrying some dreamer
Off into the end of time
You don't need to save her
Or teach her to behave, just let her arms unwind
Ever-changing and undefined
She's a river

You can ride easy when she's slow
Run across her when she low
Follow wherever she goes
She's a river
Run for cover when she's mad
Drown in her tears when days are bad
Don't you ever forget it then
She's a river

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Isn't she a river?
She doesn't need a diamond to shine
So people call you clever
But she's been a here a long, long time
And she's seen so many faces
And places down the line
She's been left for dead a million times
Keeps coming home, arms open wide
Ever-changing and undefined
She's a river
Ooh, ooh, ooh
She's a river
Ooh, ooh, ooh

She's a river
