You
know a dream is like a river
Ever changin' as it flows |
And a
dreamer's just a vessel
That must follow where it goes |
Trying
to learn from what's behind you
And never knowing what's in store
|
 |
 |
 |
Makes
each day a constant battle
Just to stay between the shores...and
|
I will
sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry |
Like a
bird upon the wind
These waters are my sky |
 |
 |
 |
I'll
never reach my destination
If I never try |
So I
will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry |
Too
many times we stand aside
And let the waters slip away |
 |
 |
 |
'Til
what we put off 'til tomorrow
Has now become today |
So
don't you sit upon the shoreline
And say you're satisfied |
Choose
to chance the rapids
And dare to dance the tide...yes
|
 |
 |
 |
I will
sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry |
Like a
bird upon the wind
These waters are my sky |
I'll
never reach my destination
If I never try |
 |
 |
 |
So I
will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry |
There's
bound to be rough waters
And I know I'll take some falls
|
But
with the good Lord as my captain
I can make it through them all...yes
|
 |
 |
 |
I will
sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry |
Like a
bird upon the wind
These waters are my sky |
I'll
never reach my destination
If I never try |
 |
 |
 |
So I
will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry |
Yes, I
will sail my vessel
'Til the river runs dry |
'Til
the river runs dry |
