Rivers On The Rise Lyrics

Rivers On The Rise lyrics

She wakes up with a smile seldom seen before 

Gets ready for work, grabs
her keys and floats right 

Out the door 

Oh, the smell of her
perfume says he'll be 

Waitin' there 

While drivin' down Fourth
Avenue, she combs her hair 



Well, he's been waitin' for someone
like her all his life 

He's got so much to tell her when the time is
right 

He drifts into another world when she walks down the hall 

The way he looks at her and says hello, oh says it all 



You can
hear it in his voice 

You can see it in her eyes 

Oh, love is a
river and the river's on the rise 



Love is a river runnin' wild
and runnin' free 

Flowin' through the heart like the Mississippi flows


Through me 

It's like standin' on a levee lookin' down into the


Delta's eyes 

Oh, love is a river and the river's on the rise 



So they both pretend that this is just another day 

But they
know one wrong move, could give it all away 

With an endless stream of
emotion buildin' up inside 

He feels born again, and she's never felt so
alive 



You can hear it in his voice 

You can see it in her
eyes 

Oh, love is a river and the river's on the rise 

Yeah, love
is a river and the river's on the rise 



The river's on the rise


Look out, the river's on the rise 

Here it comes, the river's on
the rise 

Look out, the river's on the rise 

There they go, the
river's on the rise 

Yeah
