Oh the river rise and it's a mile high

Is this worth tryin' Is this worth tryin'

'Cause I could fall like a tear

Well there's nothing else I can do

When I'm not alone nothing's beside me

What one eye sees the other's blind in

Well I could fall as if I was young

With a lifetime to think of you

Fire one for losing and two for hiding

Keep river moving movin' right by me

I could fall

And there's nothin' else I can do

Ah the river rise and it's a mile high

Has this world turned Has this world tried

'Cause I could fall like a tear

Well there's nothin' else I can do

Up on the river rise

She's a mile high
