Jimmy Lafave River Road Lyrics

there's something that i gotta say
it's been needed for a long, long time
they say the truth can set you free
let me say what's on my mind
and if my words should fails me now
i hope that you would understand
you deserve much more
than the person that i am

take a walk down a river road
let it ease your mind
i'm in love with you
have been for a long, long time
take a walk down a river road
let the pain just disappear
i love you, baby
i'm glad that you're here

i have seen the sun shine down
equal on everyone
and i've watched it walk away
when the day was done
lost in the shadows there
me and my mortal soul
baby, you have pulled me through
more than you could ever know take a walk down a river road
it's a brand new day
the sorrow can't touch you now
let it all fade away
take a walk down a river road
no trouble in your mind
everything's gonna be just fine

they say in every life
we may have some deep regret
forgiveness has its own free will
perhaps it hasn't found me yet
but i say to anyone, that we hurt
along the way
time is such a healing wind
and i hope it blows your way

take a walk down a river road
take it in the morning light
i promise by the end of the day
things are gonna be alright
take a walk down a river road
let the pain just disappear
it's a great big world
i'm glad that you're here
