Verse:
* *
You know a dream is like a river ever changin' as it flows.
And the dreamer's just a vessel that must follow where it goes.
*
Trying to learn from what's behind you, and never knowing
what's in store
*
Makes each day a constant battle just to stay between the shores
CHORUS:
* *
And I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry.
Like a bird upon the wind, these water's are my sky.
*
I'll never reach my destination if I never try.
* # #
So, I will sail my vessel 'till the river runs dry.
Verse:
* *
2: Too many times we stand aside and let the water slip away
'Til what we put off 'til tomorrow has now become today.
*
So, don't you sit upon the shorline and say you're satisfied.
* # #
Choose to chance the rapids and dare to dance the tide.
CHORUS:
* *
And I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry.
Like a bird upon the wind, these water's are my sky.
*
I'll never reach my destination if I never try.
* # #
So, I will sail my vessel 'till the river runs dry.
BRIDGE:
And there's bound to be rough waters and I know I'll take
some falls.
But with the Good Lord as my captain, I can make it
through them all.
CHORUS: (with key change)
Yes, I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry.
Like a bird upon the wind, these water's are my sky.
I'll never reach my destination if I never try.
So, I will sail my vessel 'till the river runs dry.
Yes, I will sail my vessel 'till the river runs dry.
'til the river runs dry.
