It courses freely through your blood

And washes over all you touch

I think it’s why you care so much

This river is your love

It scales its banks both day and night

Forever wanting to take flight

From were you hold it safe and tight

This river in your heart

For though you dam its banks with thought

It struggles in this web of fears

It need, it wants; deserves this naught

And so the river floods

Let go, and let the river course

Set free your cares and worries now

Let people swim along its banks

Please open unto me

You’ll let me bathe in this river, yes

You’ll let me swim is beauteous depths

Washed gently in its sweet caress; perhaps one day

Our paths shall flow together

But I’ll just stay here, on your banks

Waiting for you to realize…

Waiting for you to understand; your love

Is what keeps me alive
