River
Wistful Winter Reflections: Skating Away on a River of Regret
Lyrics
It's coming on Christmas
Christmas is approaching
And they're cuttin´ down trees
People are chopping trees
They're putting up reindeer
Decorating with reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
Singing about joy and peace
Oh, I wish I had a river
Desire for an escape, wishing for a river
I could skate away on
Yearning to skate away, seeking freedom
And it don't snow here
It doesn't snow in this location
It stays pretty green
Environment remains green
I'm gonna make a lot of money
Aspiration to earn a significant amount of money
Gonna quit this crazy scene
Intention to leave a hectic or distressing situation
oh, I wish I had a river
Reiteration of longing for a river as an escape
I could skate away on
Repeating desire to skate away from troubles
I wish I had a river so long
Wishing for a river of considerable length
I would teach my feet to fly
Yearning to learn to transcend difficulties
I wish I had a river
Continued longing for a river as an escape
I could skate away on
Reiteration of desire to skate away from problems
I made my baby cry
Regretting causing emotional distress to a loved one
He tried hard to help me
Recognition of someone's efforts to assist
he put me at ease
Feeling comforted by the support
he loved me so naughty
Describing intense and passionate love
Made me weak in the knees
Feeling emotionally overwhelmed by love
Oh, I wish I had a river
Desiring an escape via a river
I could skate away on
Longing to skate away from personal challenges
And I'm so hard to handle
Acknowledging personal difficulties to handle
I'm selfish and I'm sad
Admitting to being self-centered and melancholic
I've gone and lost the best baby
Realizing the loss of a beloved person
That I ever had
Expressing regret for losing someone special
Oh, I wish I had a river
Continued wish for a river to escape
I could skate away on
Desire to skate away from troubles remains
Oh, I wish I had a river so long
Longing for an extensive river to overcome difficulties
I would teach my feet to fly
Desire to transcend challenges and limitations
I wish I had a river
Reiteration of longing for a river as an escape
I could skate away on
Continued desire to skate away from problems
I made my baby say goodbye
Regret for causing a loved one to leave
It's coming on Christmas
Reiteration of Christmas approaching and tree cutting
They're cutting down trees
Continued reference to tree chopping
They're putting up reindeer
Reiterating decoration with reindeer and songs of joy
and singing songs of joy and peace
Continued singing about joy and peace
I wish I had a river
Repeating wish for a river as an escape
I could skate away on
Desire to skate away from present circumstances
