I have been out on the river
Since the break of dawn
I'm sailing on this mirror
Where I long for your reflection
I see the waves arise, right before my eyes
Listening to the wind, never telling lies
Only what I need to hear
I see the river run, running with the tides
And I hear the whales singing me where I need to be
Let the river flow
Into an ocean it will grow
Don't hold on to me
Your river is a road to the sea
You can let me go
Back into the deep I will flow
Don't hold on to me
Your river is a road to the sea
Don't hold on to me
My river is my way to be free
