And The River Is Me
Lyricist:James Darrell Scott
I guess I've always known I was in this for life It's cost me some sleepless days It's cost me a wife
Maybe I've spent a little too much time Looking in the bathroom mirror Waiting for the steam to disappear Thinking I was getting clearer and clearer
Maybe I could've been a cook Or maybe taught high school math Maybe I could've been the man on the street With a future as uncertain as my past
But I've been singing for a living Back and forth across America Singing 'bout things I should talk to my shrink And to my shrink singing kum-by-yah
With my head in a song And a song in my head Just let me live until I'm dead There's so many books I wish I'd read Like war and peace
So many friends, I've won and lost So many masks, I've worn and tossed Into troubled waters, I could not cross Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And the river is me and the river is me
River run to the ocean River roll to the sea
They had this test back in high school Said, I had a career in forestry Had aptitude for isolation Yeah, I could live without TV
But me, I took the low road Looking for another light I don't live in a tower on some fire road But the human view is out of sight
With my head in a song And a song in my head Just let me live until I'm dead There's so many words I wish I'd said Like I'm sorry I am sorry
So many friends, I've won and lost So many masks, I've worn and tossed Into troubled waters, I could not cross And the river is me and the river is me
River run to the ocean River roll to the sea
