*(Verse 1)*
I woke up this mornin’, with the weight on my chest,
The sun didn’t rise, just a sky full of regrets.
I walked to the river, where the waters run deep,
But the current’s too strong, and it’s stealing my sleep.
*(Pre-Chorus)*
Oh, the blues ain’t just a color, it’s a shadow in my bones,
It’s the echo of a heartache, in a house that’s not a home.
*(Chorus)*
But I’ll sing to the river, let it carry my pain,
Through the valleys of sorrow, through the acid rain.
Oh, the river of my soul, it’s a long, winding road,
But I’ll find my way back, where the love still flows.
*(Verse 2)*
I met an old man, with a guitar in his hand,
He said, "Son, this life ain’t what you planned.
But the blues is your story, let it heal your scars,
It’s the cry of the broken, it’s the light in the dark."
*(Pre-Chorus)*
Oh, the blues ain’t just a feeling, it’s a fire in my veins,
It’s the truth in the silence, it’s the hope that remains.
*(Chorus)*
So I’ll sing to the river, let it carry my pain,
Through the valleys of sorrow, through the acid rain.
Oh, the river of my soul, it’s a long, winding road,
But I’ll find my way back, where the love still flows.
*(Bridge)*
And when the night gets colder, and the stars lose their glow,
I’ll keep on singing, ‘cause the river still flows.
It’s a song for the weary, for the lost and the blind,
It’s the rhythm of the heart, it’s the pulse of time.
*(Chorus)*
So I’ll sing to the river, let it carry my pain,
Through the valleys of sorrow, through the acid rain.
Oh, the river of my soul, it’s a long, winding road,
But I’ll find my way back, where the love still flows.
*(Outro)*
Oh, the river of my soul, it’s a long, winding road,
But I’ll find my way back, where the love still flows.
Yeah, I’ll find my way back, where the love still flows.
