I'm going to the river
to see if I can find
someone to protect me from
what I desire
I'm going to the river
to find someone
someone who can tell me where
the love has gone
I'm going to the river
I'm going to the river
I'm going to the river
to find someone
someone to protect me from
what I can't find
I'm going to the river
to find someone
someone that can tell me where
the life has gone
I'm going to the river
I'm going to the river
but I'm going to the river
I'm going to the river
to see if I can find
someone to protect me from
what I desire
I'm going to the river
to find someone
someone who can tell me where
the love has gone
I'm going to the river
I'm going to the river
I'm going to the river
to find someone
someone to protect me from
what I can't find
I'm going to the river
to find someone
someone that can tell me where
the life has gone
I'm going to the river
I'm going to the river
but I'm going to the river
