Текст песни River - Patty Griffin

Isn't she a river?
She doesn't need a diamond to shine
You can't really have her
But you can hold her for a time

Takes an army just to bend her
Be careful where you send her
You can't hold her back for long
A river is just too strong
And she's a river

Arms made out of silver
Moving in a crooked line
Carrying some dreamers
Off into the end of time

You don't need to save her
Or teach her to behave
Just let her arms unwind
Ever changing and undefined
She's a river

You can ride her easy when she's slow
Walk across her when she's low
Follow wherever she goes
She's a river

Run for cover when she's mad
Drown in her tears when things are bad
Don't you ever forget it that
She's a river

Isn't she a river?

She doesn't need a diamond to shine
So people call you clever
But she's been here a long, long time

And she's seen so many faces
And places down the line
She's been left for dead a million times
Keeps coming home
Arms open wide
Ever changing and undefined

She's a river

She's a river

She's a river
