"River In The Rain" lyrics

River In The Rain

River in the rain
Sometimes at night
You look like a long white train
Winding your way away somewhere
River I love you
Don't you care

If you're on the run
Winding some place
Just trying to find the sun
Whether the sunshine whether the rain
River I love you
Just the same

But sometimes in a time of trouble
When you're out of hand
And your muddy bubbles
Roll across my floor
Carrying away the things I treasure
Hell there ain't no way to measure
Why I love you more
Than I did the day before

River in the rain
Sometimes at night
You look like a long white train
Winding your way away from me
River I've never seen the sea

But sometimes in a time of trouble
When you're out of hand
And your muddy bubbles
Roll across my floor
Carrying away the things I treasure
Hell there ain't no way to measure
Why I love you more
Than I did the day before

River in the rain
Sometimes at night
You look like a long white train
Winding your way away from me
River I've never seen the sea
