River Lyrics by Law And Order

Rites Of Passage

1991

I remember the days by the river
Out in the back country
Watchin' the leaves that fell to the ground, yeah
Floating on downstream

Tossin' rocks from the shoreline
And takin' some time to think
The water moves down, but it's funny how, yeah
The difference can't be seen

Said, ooh
You never know, yeah, which way it flows
Ooh, and the river runs through me

Now there's a time in life to wander
And a time for certainty
Let the light inside guide you down the river
Of eternity, yeah

Said, ooh
You never know, yeah, which way it flows
Ooh, and the river runs through me
Ooh, and the river runs through me

So do you know, do you remember
A place that brought you peace?
It's life that flows like the river rolls
On continuously, alright

Said, ooh
You never know, yeah, which way it flows
Ooh, and the river runs through me

Now before you ever spill again
The waters that you need
Ooh, and the river runs through me

Oh, and the river flows, yeah, back into the sea
Oh, and the river flows, yeah, back into the sea
Oh, and the river flows, yeah, back into the sea
Oh, and the river flows, yeah, back into the sea
