Take me back to my boat on the river
I need to go down, I need to come down
Take me back to my boat on the river
And I wont cry out anymore

Time stands still as I gaze in her waters
She eases me down, touching me gently
With the waters that flow past m boat on the river
So I don’t cry out anymore

Oh the river is wise
The river it touches my life like the waves on the sand
And all roads lead to tranquility base
Where the frown on my face disappears

Take me down to my boat on the river
And I wont cry out anymore

Oh the river is deep
The river it touches my life like the waves on the sand
And all roads lead to tranquility base
Where the frown on my face disappears

Take me down to my boat on the river
I need to go down, wont you let me go down

Take me back to my boat on the river
And i wont cry out anymore
And i wont cry out anymore
And i wont cry out anymore
