The River
Journey through the River: Embracing Storms and Finding Home
Lyrics
Don’t know where I’m going
Expressing uncertainty about the future and destination.
Lead me there and show me
Seeking guidance and revelation of the true identity.
Who you are
Desire to know the essence of the person.
sing me your tune snake charmer
Requesting a captivating melody from a snake charmer.
The darkness makes it harder
Struggling in the darkness, facing challenges.
Head above the water
Fighting to stay afloat and resilient.
Gettin cold
Sensing the coldness, yearning to move forward.
Want you take me farther
Expressing a desire to be taken to greater distances.
Ahh-oh
Uttering a vocal expression, perhaps of longing or emotion.
Sing me your tune snake charmer
Repeating the request for a captivating melody from a snake charmer.
It’s a long long way back
Acknowledging the extensive journey ahead.
Home, how could I know
Pondering the unknown aspects of returning home.
when white water rushes in
Encountering challenges represented by rushing white water.
Laid me down, let me drown
Being overwhelmed and submitting to the challenges.
Your storm had it’s way with me
Experiencing the impact of a metaphorical storm.
but I can’t ignore the thunder
Unable to ignore the emotional intensity symbolized by thunder.
Laid me down, let me drown in the river
Submitting to the challenges and drowning in the metaphorical river.
Touch me and I’ll know you
Suggesting a connection through touch and understanding.
Take me to the edge and
Asking to be taken to the edge and released.
Let me go
Expressing readiness to let go.
You make it look so easy
Acknowledging the apparent ease with which someone handles challenges.
Current’s getting stronger
Struggling against a strengthening current, losing grip on identity.
Can’t seem to hold on to who you were
Unable to retain the essence of who the person once was.
Save me, save me, take me
Pleading for rescue and transformation.
It’s a long long way back
Reiterating the extensive journey back home.
Home, how could I know
Reflecting on the uncertainties when facing challenges.
when white water rushes in
Encountering challenges represented by rushing white water once again.
Laid me down, let me drown
Yielding to the overwhelming force of challenges.
Your storm had it’s way with me
Experiencing the aftermath of a storm's impact.
but I can’t ignore the thunder
Unable to disregard the emotional intensity symbolized by thunder.
Laid me down, let me drown in the river
Submitting to challenges and drowning in the metaphorical river once more.
Home, how could I know
Revisiting the contemplation of returning home.
when white water rushes in
Facing uncertainties in the face of challenges once again.
Laid me down, let me drown
Yielding to the overpowering force of challenges.
Your storm had it’s way with me
Experiencing the aftermath of a storm's impact once more.
but I can’t ignore the thunder
Unable to ignore the emotional intensity symbolized by thunder once more.
Laid me down, let me drown in the river
Submitting to challenges and drowning in the metaphorical river again.
