Phil Stacey - No Way Around A River lyrics

rate me

You keep closing your eyes

Trying to ignore it

Hoping it'll disappear

Face to face with your own Goliath

At least that's how it looks from here

All the stones you can throw

Won't scare it away

And pacing back and forth

Trying to think of something

To get you to the other side

The path of your fear

Runs in all directions

When you're looking for a place to hide

But you know the one you've

gotta take

There's no way around a river, baby

Wade on in the deep

And when you can't go any further

Hold on to me

And if it pulls you under

I'll be there too

There's no way around a river, baby

It's just something you've gotta

go through

The troubles you face

The wounds you're protecting

The sins that you wrestle with

We all have our share we'd like to

get over

Sometimes there's just no bridge

And the very thing that makes

us afraid

Is just what we need to wash it away

That's the way it is

So just wade on in

I'll see you on the other side

No way around it

No way around a river, baby

Wade on in, wade on in

And if it pulls you under

I'll be there too

There's no way around a river, baby

It's just something you've gotta go through

Oh yes it is, yes it is

Oh, no way around it

No way around a river, baby

Wade on in, wade on in - yeah
