The River

(Lacie Madison)
River roll on, river so strong
Please take these memories,
Take them deep and taken them far,
Far away from me
River roll on help me be strong,
For I aint got nothing left
River please take some of my burden
Cause I can’t help myself

He left me there, crying just like the rain
And yet it hurts so much more.
Please wash away my pain

River roll on, river so strong
Rolling on to the sea
Rive why do you roll on so long
Just to find yourself empty
River roll on, you don’t have no purpose,
Just like I do.
And yet you keep on rolling on,
how can you be strong and true?

Once you reach the sea what do you have?
You become the rain and then you begin again

River roll on, river so long
Did you start like me?
Lost and lonely, empty inside
Nothing left but a tiny stream
River roll on rover so strong
You keep on going nonetheless
You keep on rolling strong like you don’t any rest

Sometimes it seems there is no way out
And yet you still find a way,
To keep going somehow

River roll on, river so strong
I thank you for talking to me
I feel a little stronger now,
And not quite so empty

River roll on river so strong,
I know I’m not strong like you
Yet I’ll keep on rolling on,
Fighting to be true

River deep and wide.
