Lyrics

FLOW LIKE A RIVER © 2009 Ken Lehnig
I've had these dreams and I still wonder
What places these roads will take me
Do I have the strength to go or will my weakness show?
Where this hard life will take me

I want a life that matters
Not one left in tatters
Avoid the things restraining
Keep the ground I'm gaining
I need a lovers touch
It means so very much
To flow - flow like a river

A confusing thing I'm fighting
Why can't I shake myself free?
Cause all these things I do
Aren't always good or true
Comes so fast it's blinding me

I want a life that matters
Not one left in tatters
Avoid the things restraining
Keep the ground I'm gaining
I need a lovers touch
It means so very much
To flow - flow like a river

I live too much time in darkness
The light won't touch the shadows
Thank you for loving me
You are my rooted tree
When I'm lost and hollow

Thank you for saving me
I need the will to see
That you are so very good for me
And you flow like a river

I want a life that matters
Not one left in tatters
Avoid the things restraining
Keep the ground I'm gaining
I need a lovers touch
It means so very much
To flow - flow like a river

the beat is really catchy

A mix of Petty, Young feel.

Nice laid back blues vibe, I love the storyline.

Really like the vocal phrasing - something I suck at.
