Skimming stones across to test the other side
I am at a loss, the river seems so wide
And I want to tell the boy down deep inside, you cannot hide
Relive all the pain, it comes in with the tide
I can stand the rain if I reach the other side
And I'm tryin' to find the courage in my heart to open my mind
There's a river, a river, no bridge in site
And I'm swimming, swimming with all my might
Sometimes you've got to take a chance on life to see the light
Lives are on the line, but time is on our side
We will drink the wine and watch our worlds collide
And we'll raise a glass it's great to be alive, we will survive
There's a river, a river, no bridge in site
And I'm swimming, swimming with all my might
There's a river, a river, no bridge in site
And I'm swimming, swimming with all my might
Sometimes you've got to take a chance on life to see the light
