the river

when i was held up in chains, the river was free, when i was covered in stains, the river was clean, when i was losing my way, the river found me, i can see the river, i can feel the river, i'm letting go of all i hold onto, let it wash away, when we were broken inside, the river was love, when we were thirsty and dry, you were more than enough, when we were drowning in lies, the river saved us, i'm dancing in the river, and i'll be here forever, i'm letting go of everything but you, carry me away, carry me away.
