RACHAEL YAMAGATA - River lyrics

rate me

It's coming on Christmas

They're cutting down trees

They're putting up reindeer and singing songs of joy and peace

Oh

I wish I had a river I could skate away on

But it don't snow here

It stays pretty green

I'm gonna make a lot of money and I'm gonna quit this crazy scene

Oh

I wish I had a river I could skate away on

I wish I had a river so long I could teach my feet to fly

Oh

I wish I had a river I could skate away on

I made my baby cry

You tried hard to help me

Always put me at ease

You loved me so naughty baby

Made me weak in the knees

Oh

I wish I had a river I could skate away on

And I'm so hard to handle

I'm selfish and I'm sad

And I've gone and lost the best baby that I have ever had

Oh

I wish I had a river I could skate away on

I wish I had a river so long I could teach my feet to fly

Oh

I wish I had a river I could skate away on

I made my baby say goodbye

It's coming on Christmas

They're cutting down trees

They're putting up reindeer and singing songs of joy and peace

Oh

I wish I had a river I could skate away on
