Grateful to see this beautiful ocean Burdened by all the things to come Believe me honey I always had the notion To let things fall down one by one
Walkin? the streets of New Orleans Lookin? to get my fortune told I pass a lady who seemed to be crazy She said, ?Baby, your eyes are much too old?
And, ?Your soul is like a river, it just don?t know how to flow? And, ?Your love is like a river, it don?t know where to go?
Honey I am not quite finished forgiving It?s only been a year And I would like to sing my song Without having to shed another tear
But I still stumble down the alleys of Decatur And it?s like a washing flood I?m still searchin?, searchin? for my savior I look up, and it?s you, in the place of the sun
And your soul is like a river, it just don?t know how to flow Your love is like a river, it don?t know where to go.
Grateful to see this beautiful ocean Burdened by all the things to come Believe me honey I?ve always had the notion To let things fall down
And your love, like the fall You said, it is a fair weathered friend And my love, like the fall Just don?t know, it just don?t know when to end
