Lyrics
There's a river runs through your heart
and it carries your pain away
It can run so cold and dark
but it keeps the flood at bay
And your heart can be new
if you just let it do as it may
There's a river runs through your mind
and it carries your memories away
It can run so straight and fast
buy you always remember today
and your mind can be free
if you want it to be that way
Run river, run
Run river, run
run
There's a river runs through your soul
and it doesn't go to the sea
It can run forever I'm told
It flows back to you through me
and our souls can live on
If the current's as strong as can be
