Turn my back, I run from you. Close my eyes, I deny the truth. Still I sail in that old wooden pue. Say my prayers, take my communion. Days go by when my feaith is strong, but Lord those nights, I get too far gone. In my head is a center song, just a hollow hellelujah Oh, I still believe. Oh, in the promise wide and deep Love is a river gonna carry me home, no it don't matter where I go. Love is a mountain, I'm a rolling stone. I come round before too long. Love is a river gonna carry me, carry me home The streets I walk, they're just painted gold. Rain comes down, red turn black as coal. No one here is gonna save my soul. I've gotta make my way back to ya Oh, I still believe. Oh, you're waiting there for me Love is a river gonna carry me home, no it don't matter where I go. Love is a mountain, I'm a rolling stone. I come round before too long. Love is a river gonna carry me, carry me home Just a few more weary days and oh, I'll fly away Love is a river gonna carry me home, no it don't matter where I go. Love is a mountain, I'm a rolling stone. I come round before too long. Love is a river gonna carry me, love is a river gonna carry me, carry me. Love is a river gonna carry me, carry me home
