Il testo della River

I go, i go
Walking south by the river
I'm told, i'm told
I'll find gold by the river

So long, so long
My dear friends and hello strangers
Oh shine, oh shine
My sweet metal please release me
Oh, my body's sore, don't hurt no more

It's time, it's time
I hope my search will find an answer
It's hard but i keep on wondering how
My life could change for the better
You know i tried
To get things right
Thought this would be the answer

So wash, so wash
Wash that dirt from my treasure
Oh this precious gold won't make me whole
Please let me go

All i ever wanted was right in front of me
This life made me empty
I've got nothing left to give
How you hurt my pride, you pushed me down to the ground
All you ever wanted was to hold me down

It's hard but keep on wondering how
My life could change for the better
You know i tried to get things right
Thought this would be the answer

So i wash, i wash
I wash that dirt from my treasure
It's hard, so hard
But i learn and i get better
Oh this precious cold won't make me whole

I go, i go but it's a long way to the river
And i can't find any gold
By the river
