Oh, this river, oh this river runs
Can't take my heart away from you
You are in my soul
Can't tame this love I feel for you
Can't escape what is meant to be
It's endless as the heavens
It's timeless and it's strong
It's faithful as an angel
It's right there right or wrong
There's no end to this emotion
It goes on and on
This river runs, this river runs so true
This river runs, this river runs to you
This river's deep as the ocean
Runs on blind emotion
This river runs, oh yeah
You're every beat within my heart
You are in my blood
Nothing could keep me from your arms
Where you are is where I'll always be
As long as there are mountains
And stars still fill the sky
As long as there's forever
I'm right here by your side
There's no end to this emotion
Till the end of time
This river runs, this river runs so true
This river runs, this river runs to you
This river's deep as the ocean
Runs on blind emotion
This river runs, oh yeah
This river runs, oh so deep within my soul
And it flows forever
And for the rest of all time
Always be there
This river runs, this river runs so true
This river runs, this river runs to you
This river's deep as the ocean
Runs on blind emotion
This river runs, oh yeah
Can't take my heart away from you
You are in my soul
Can't tame this love I feel for you
Can't escape what is meant to be
It's endless as the heavens
It's timeless and it's strong
It's faithful as an angel
It's right there right or wrong
There's no end to this emotion
It goes on and on
This river runs, this river runs so true
This river runs, this river runs to you
This river's deep as the ocean
Runs on blind emotion
This river runs, oh yeah
You're every beat within my heart
You are in my blood
Nothing could keep me from your arms
Where you are is where I'll always be
As long as there are mountains
And stars still fill the sky
As long as there's forever
I'm right here by your side
There's no end to this emotion
Till the end of time
This river runs, this river runs so true
This river runs, this river runs to you
This river's deep as the ocean
Runs on blind emotion
This river runs, oh yeah
This river runs, oh so deep within my soul
And it flows forever
And for the rest of all time
Always be there
This river runs, this river runs so true
This river runs, this river runs to you
This river's deep as the ocean
Runs on blind emotion
This river runs, oh yeah
