Weary River

[Verse]
Poets say our lives are like the rivers that flow
They surely know true
Everyone a different kind of stream, so they say
All on our way too
Here's a raging torrent that's dashing on strong
Here's a peaceful rivulet bubbling alone

[Chorus]
I have been just like a weary river
That keeps winding endlessly
Fate has been a very cheerful giver
To most everyone but me
Oh, how long it took me to learn
Hope is strong and tides have to turn
And now I know that every weary river
Someday meets the sea!

[Chorus]
I have been just like a weary river
That keeps winding endlessly
Fate has been a very cheerful giver
To most everyone but me
Oh, how long it took me to learn
Hope is strong and tides have to turn
And now I know that every weary river
Someday meets the sea!
