To The River by John Mellencamp
Artist: John Mellencamp
Album: Human Wheels
They are master and slave
We are sunlight and shadow
All roads to the river
I am lost. i am saved
I'm beloved and betrayed
All roads to the river
Chorus:
And the river runs wide
And the river runs deep
And i spit in the eye
Of safe company
When i dive right down
To the undertow
Well, the deeper i drown
Lord, the higher i'll go
I am whispering dreams
I am howling revolutions
All roads to the river
I am valentine sweet
And i live in this nightmare
All roads to the river
Chorus:
And the river runs wide
The river runs deep
And i spit in the eye
Of safe company
When i dive right down
To the undertow
Well, the deeper i drown
Lord, the higher i'll go
This is nothing like we planned
That's the way it's always been
All roads to the river
I have hated and i have loved
I have prayed and i have sinned
All roads to the river
Chorus:
And the river runs wide
The river runs deep
And i spit in the eye
Of safe company
When i dive right down
To the undertow
Well, the deeper i drown
Lord, the higher i'll go
