Sara Evans - I Need A River lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Pre-Chorus] I’m gonna slow this whole thing down On this not so merry go round [Chorus] ‘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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Pre-Chorus] I wanna slow this whole thing down On this not so merry go round [Chorus] 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 [Outro] 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
