Rolling River God
|
Little Stones are smooth
|
Only once the water passes through
|
So I am a stone
|
rough and grainy still
|
Trying to reconcile this river's chill
|
|
Chorus
|
But when I close my eyes
|
and feel you rushing by
|
I know that time brings change
|
and change takes time
|
And when the sunset comes
|
my prayer would be this one
|
that you might pick me up
|
and notice that I am
|
just a little smoother in your hand
|
|
Sometimes raging wild
|
sometimes swollen high
|
never have I known this river dry
|
The deepest part of you
|
is where I want to stay
|
and feel the sharpest edges wash away
|
|
Chorus
|
And when I close my eyes
|
and feel you rushing by
|
I know that time brings change
|
and change takes time
|
And when the sunset comes
|
my prayer would be just this one
|
that you might pick me up
|
and notice that I am
|
just a little smoother in your hand
|
