Simple Minds - She's A River lyrics

Shadow let go There's something you should know I just found my new direction And i hope you like the key Like the air that led me to it She's like the wind that s**ed me through it She's a river and she's turning there in front of me Stand back - get back She'll paint your blue skies black She gives bullet proof protection Got a resurrection feel When i'm scared, and 'bout to lose She gives me travelling shoes She's a river and she's turning in front of me And i go blind Wasting my time While the rivers in front of me That's where i'm goin' to be Shine on, get on Twilight from dusk to dawn She's the spirit of creation She's the last chance guarantee Got a myriad of poses Sweet miracles and roses She's a river and she's turning in front of me 'cause when i find My state of mind The river's in front of me They say that every heaven's got a thousand rooms So take me on that freedom ride My heart is like a hunter's in the silent moon My nerves just feel electrified Meet me on the staircase Outside a darkened room Light me like a naked flame The voice of mother nature states All things must pa** And nothing can remain They say that every heaven's got a thousand rooms So take me on that freedom ride You raise me like a building to the very top Rush me to the end of time You fill me full of danger You give me future shock Then you leave me wasted dying And i go blind Wasting my time The river's in front of me Written by : kerr/burchill reproduced without permission
