There's gotta be a place where we can be in peace and the furious rivers flow will finally begin to cease You say I'm being sensitive I'm looking for whats not there but all I ask is one small smile to glimpse through the waters air Why must i drown in the rivers pull give me a boat to row to a place where peace and happiness will have no shackles in which to show I watch another day swim by my eyes been wet till sleep I try to tread in this vicious gyre and my heart proceeds to weep And though the current's not too strong no air will reach my lungs throughout the months and now the years mercy I have sung

The River
There's gotta be a place where we can be in peace and the furious rivers flow will finally begin to cease You say I'm being sensitive I'm looking for whats not there but all I ask is one small smile to glimpse through the waters air Why must i drown in the rivers pull give me a boat to row to a place where peace and happiness will have no shackles in which to show I watch another day swim by my eyes been wet till sleep I try to tread in this vicious gyre and my heart proceeds to weep And though the current's not too strong no air will reach my lungs throughout the months and now the years mercy I have sung
