Sometimes the River Talks

If you walk along the river At a certain time of year If you listen with intention And you're lucky you might hear Sometimes the river talks If you sit beside the river When conditions are just so If you're mindful of your breathing Match it to the river's flow Sometimes the river talks One day I heard it say I have been here an eternity I've seen all there is to see Here's the simple truth There is no life without me If you paddle on the river At a certain time of day If you let the current take you Let it carry you away Sometimes the river talks I heard it say I have been here an eternity I've seen all there is to see Here's the simple truth There is no life without me Here's the simple truth There is no life without me
