John Spillane - Let The River Flow lyrics

rate me

You lost your key, and you can't go home

Take a walk around town

Be on your own

And your feet are drawn, down to the river side

You sit on the stone

And you talk to the tide

Let the river go, let the river go, let the river go

Where the river must go, let the river flow

And you never know, who you might meet

When you come to the corner

And you cross the street

And you walk in the door, of Charlie's bar

And you look at the world

Through the empty jar

Let the river go, the river go, let the river go

Where the river must go, let the river flow

Ah here comes Seamus, with his boyish grin

And his crazy poems

You always like to see him

But you wish that he didn't, have to feel such pain

Such pain that he doesn't

Know if he's going or staying

Let the river go, the river go, let the river go

Where the river must go, let the river flow

And here's Fionnbarra, with his coat and his hood

Lovely fella

Not looking too good

And you wish that he didn't, have to feel such pain

Such pain that he doesn't

Know if he's going or he's staying

Let the river go, let the river go, let the river go

Where the river must go, let the river flow

If the world was an apple, if the world was a pear

If the world was a cherry

Still it wouldn't be fair

Let the river go, the river go, let the river go

Where the river must go, let the river flow<br />

<br />
