I Need a River - Sara Evans

I’d like to can all my troubles in fruit jars on a cedar shelf

Pack up the car and my guitar and promise I will laugh at myself

I’m gonna slow this whole thing down

On this not so merry go round

'Cause I need a river in a real bad way

Out of sight and out of town I go

Take to the giver this heavy heart of clay

And I’ll swing on the vine

Letting go I know I’ll find

That I am falling into grace

I need a river, I need a river in a real bad way

Baby you can come too if you promise to be lighter than air

No tangles or distractions except the wild flowers in my hair

You can come up close to me

'Cause you know I know what you need yeah

You need a river in a real bad way

Out of sight and out of town you go

Take to the giver your heavy heart of clay

And you’ll swing on the vine

Letting go I know you’ll find

That you are falling into grace

You need a river, you need a river in a real bad way

I wanna slow this whole thing down

On this not so merry go round

Yeah I need a river in a real bad way

Out of sight and out of town I go

Take to the giver this heavy heart of clay

And I’ll swing on the vine

Letting go I know I’ll find

That I am falling into grace

Oh I love, I love this place

I need a river, yeah I need a river in a real bad way

Ooh I need a river

I need a river

Oh I need a river
