Joan Baez - Strange Rivers lyrics
[Joan Baez - Strange Rivers lyrics]
Faces at the door that open on the rivers
We've never seen before
Are there choices for the sparrow
Or does he only fly
High above the rivers that are
Pulling you and I
Oh, there are strange rivers
Rivers that we cannot see
There are strange rivers who know our destiny
There are strange rivers who brought
Your love to me
He could have been a builder
He could have been the one
Who turned his dreams to steel
Cathedrals in the sun
He could have been a builder
Until he bought the gun
There are forces in that river that
Keep him on the run
Oh, there are strange rivers
Rivers that we cannot see
There are strange rivers who know our destiny
There are strange rivers who brought
Your love to me
Have you ever turned the corner
And wondered why you did?
You haven't been that way since
You were just a kid
Nothing really happens and then
You have to say
You wonder what would happen had
You gone the other way
Oh, there are strange rivers
Rivers that we cannot see
There are strange rivers who know our destiny
There are strange rivers who brought
Your love to me
