River Lyrics by Holly Macve

2024

[Verse 1]
It's comin' on Christmas, they're cutting down trees
They're puttin' up reindeer, singing songs of joy and peace
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
But it don't snow here, it stays pretty green
I'm gonna make a lot of money then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on

[Chorus]
I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I made my baby cry

[Verse 2]
He tried hard to help me, he put me at ease
He loved me so naughty, made me weak in the knees
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I'm so hard to handle, I'm selfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the best baby that I ever had
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on

[Chorus]
I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I made my baby say goodbye

[Outro]
It's comin' on Christmas, they're cutting down trees
They're puttin' up reindeer, singing songs of joy and peace
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on, ooh, ooh
