Stories The River Could Tell

STORIES THE RIVER COULD TELL
(© 2021 Tim Stafford, Rick Lang, Daniel House Music, Haley Anna Music)
V) Born in the mountains flowing down to the sea
Carrying canoes, mud, blood and trees
Remembers the day the first steamboat sailed
millions of memories, turns and tales
V) Always in motion, never slows down
Bound only by grace, gravity and ground
guarding your secrets way down below
only God and the river could know
CH) In the morning light it shimmers and glistens
Most of my life I've been under its spell
It's willing to talk If we take time to listen
To all the stories the River Could Tell
V) your voice can be gentle, angry or loud
and I sit on your banks, when you allow
lost in your current as my thoughts float away
and try to make sense of what you’ve got to say
BR) It keeps on running muddy or clear
He keeps on talking, music to my ear
CH) In the morning light it shimmers and glistens
Most of my life I've been under its spell
It's willing to talk If we take time to listen
To all the stories the River Could Tell
