Two Sides of the River Songtext

von Dar Williams

Two sides of a river
The river rushes through
Two sides of a river
One for me and one for you

We can build a bridge or baby
We can jump in
See what the river do
It's two sides of a river
Great big river rushin' through

I know the tides of the river
Know how fast and how deep
I know the tides of a river
Hope and pray they don't shift in your sleep

‘Cause the river bides its lonely loss
It has no vows to keep
I know the tides of a river
Pray, pray they don't shift in your sleep

I was a bride of the river
Before I ever met you
I was a bride of the river
Where it took me was all that I knew

Now I finally found a love to share my secrets with
Lots of things we can do
I was a bride of the river
That's where I learned to rock you

Now I finally found a love to share my secrets with
Lots of things we can do
I was a bride of the river
That's where I learned to rock you
