C F C F
This river is racing it's chasing me down
C F C F
The waters are rising I can't touch the ground
C F C F
And I pour out my soul and I scream and I shout
C F C F
And I'm under control and I can't get out
Chorus:
Dm F C
Forgive me if I don't stay so long
Dm F C
Forgive me for coming on so strong
Dm F C
Forgive me for carrying on
Dm F C
Forgive me
I've walked on the bank and I flew in the breeze
And I've tasted the water down on my knees
I waded in watching that river roll by
Then I held out my arm and I looked to the sky
Chorus
My time has run out and I want you to know
That I carry you with me where ever I go
You are my water and you are my land
And someday I hope that you understand
Chorus
