I’ve been walking in the shadows of a long, dark night Searching for a way back into the light. The water’s rising, washing sins away I can hear the music of the river song play. Met a woman down in Memphis with a mystic touch Yeah, she give me comfort when it got too much. She whispered,"Baby, don't you cry no more, Leave your heavy burden at the bedroom door."
They say that love is blind, but I can see The chains are broken, I ain't no slave, I’m free. So if you’re lonely and you feel the cold Listen to the story that is being told. It’s a cry for love echoing through the years Wiping away the stain of too many tears.
We’re just survivors in a game of chance Living on love and a second glance. Under the cover of a midnight blue sky I look for the truth hidden in your eye. So please, baby, don't lie to me tonight Everything is gonna be alright.
The road is long and the wind may blow But I’ll be with you, wherever you may go. Yeah, through the fire and the driving rain We’ll heal the heartache and kill the pain.
Yeah, love is blind, but now I see! I ain't no slave, darlin', I am free! It’s a cry for love echoing through the years No more sorrow, no more too many tears.
Yeah, she give me reason to believe. (River song keep flowing...) Wherever you may go... I’ll be there.
