River

I've made a decision, to throw away the letters that I've kept for years

I don't need permission, just sitting in a room full of souvenirs

Turning a new page, I can't wait. Didn't think I had it in me

Eye of the river

Mouth of the sea

I wanna be like the water

Going where I need to be

If I'm to deliver

I have to believe

I am a river

It's part of my condition

It's hard to let go of the devil that you know

But now I'm in remission

Packing up my boxes letting it all go

Starting a new day, I can't wait, didn't think I had it in me

Eye of the river

Mouth of the sea

I wanna be like the water

Going where I need to be

If I'm to deliver

I have to believe

I am a river

A hundredth time, the well worn lines they drags me down and they pull me under

And I wonder in this life of mine, can make the climb?

Can turn the tide

One more time?
