- The River Rise Lyrics / with translationsOh, the river rise and it's a mile high
Is this worth tryin'? Is this worth tryin'?
'Cause I could fall like a tear
Well, there's nothing else I can do
When I'm not alone nothing's beside me
What one eye sees, the other's blind in
Well, I could fall, as if I was young
With a lifetime to think of you
Fire one for losing and two for hiding
Keep river moving, movin' right by me
I could fall
And there's nothin' else I can do
Ah, the river rise and it's a mile high
Has this world turned? Has this world tried?
'Cause I could fall like a tear
Well, there's nothin' else I can do
Up on the river rise
She's a mile high
Is this worth tryin'? Is this worth tryin'?
'Cause I could fall like a tear
Well, there's nothing else I can do
When I'm not alone nothing's beside me
What one eye sees, the other's blind in
Well, I could fall, as if I was young
With a lifetime to think of you
Fire one for losing and two for hiding
I could fall
And there's nothin' else I can do
Ah, the river rise and it's a mile high
Has this world turned? Has this world tried?
'Cause I could fall like a tear
Well, there's nothin' else I can do
Up on the river rise
She's a mile high
