Dianne Reeves - River Lyrics




[Incomprehensible]

It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
Putting up reindeer
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
Then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene

I wish I had a river, I could skate away on
I wish I had a river so long, I'd teach my feet to fly
Wish I had a river, I could skate away on

I made my baby cry, he tried hard to please me
You know, he put me at ease
And he loved me so naughty
Made me weak in the knees

I need a river, I could skate away on

You see I'm so hard to handle
I'm selfish and I'm sad
Now I've lost the best baby that I, that I ever had

Oh, I wish I had a river, I could skate away on
Wish I had a river so long, I'd teach my feet to fly
Oh, oh oh wish I had a river, I could skate away on
My baby said goodbye

[Incomprehensible]
Oh oh

[Incomprehensible]

It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
Putting up reindeer
Singing songs of joy and peace

I need a river, I could skate away on

Oh
Oh oh
Oh oh oh
