River lyrics

Artist  : Julia Fordham 
Song : River



 Send "River" Ringtone to your Cell 

 Hey you, pushing the river

With the world there on your shoulders

Don't you remember a single thing

The good book told you?



Hey you, treading the water

With your head dipping out of the clouds

Sinking down, down, down, down

Waving to the old crowd



And they send these things to try us

And try us they do (oh oh)

Don't push the river, don't push the river

Don't push the river, let it carry you



I know that I'm a fine one

To be talking this way

I've been dragging the whole darn world

Behind me all day



No-one said it would be easy

And they never warned how hard

And I've been licking brand new wounds

And tending old scars



And they send these things to try us

And try us they do (oh oh)

Don't push the river, don't push the river

Don't push the river, let it carry you



Over the endless troubles, over the trying
times

These are the words of wisdom from a restless
mind



Don't push the river, don't push the river

Don't push the river, let it carry you

Don't push the river, don't push the river

Don't push the river, let it carry you
