It’s a blessing and it's a burden
A wandering soul that cannot sleep
A pull into a life uncertain
I’m alone but wild and free

I have tried to strike a bargain
Giving time to you and me
Set up house and plant a garden
Promises I just can’t keep
 
CHORUS 1
I am the river
No beginning no certain end
I’m here then gone, I always move on
I move on, always move on

When our hearts fall together
All the loneliness disappears
But I need a life without tether
Never meant to bring you tears

CHORUS 2
I am the river
No beginning, no certain end
Can’t stay too long, I always move on
I move on, always move on

Above the rush, above the noise
I close my eyes and hear your voice
 
CHORUS 3
I am the river
No beginning no certain end
Right or wrong, I always move on
I move on, always move on

I Am The River
