By the River

There's a river in my soul

Slowly drifting water guiding me home

How it calms me as it flows

Drags my heart back to the shore

There's a moon up in the sky

Turning every shadow back into light

The stars are dancing in your eyes

As they dance, they glow so bright

As they dance, they glow so bright

Oh, this can't be just a dream

Everything makes sense when you're with me

I just want to keep you safe

You deserve that every day

There's an earth beneath our feet

And it smiles when you are walking with me

Beneath the moon that lifts you

Watch over me and keep me safe when I'm asleep

We were made to feel alone

Incomplete and on our own

But by the river in my soul

I swear to God I've found a home

I swear to God I've found a home

Oh, this can't be just a dream

Everything makes sense when you're with me

I just want to keep you safe

You deserve that every day

You deserve that every day

As the wind blows through the trees

There's a warmth of you inside of me

Take my heart and let it be

By the river, set me free

You watch me burn

I was stolen

And there's nothing left to me

By your side, you will go

You watch me burn

I was stolen

And there's nothing left to me

By your side, you will go
