The River
Navigating Love's Currents: The River's Message
Lyrics
I went to the river, thinkin' 'bout jumpin' in
I went to the river, contemplating jumping in
Thinkin' 'bout your ways baby
Reflecting on your actions, baby
Trying to forget how to swim
Attempting to forget how to swim, metaphorically suggesting difficulty in coping
As I stood there, watching the train go by
Observing a passing train, a moment of realization
Oh what a message, that's when I realized
A profound message from the experience
Oh baby, is it gonna last very long
Questioning the longevity of a situation with emotional turmoil
Look at the river and how it keeps movin' on
Noticing the constant flow of the river, a metaphor for life's continuity
Oh baby, what we have is almost gone
Expressing concern that the relationship is fading
Look at the river and how it keeps movin' on
Reiterating the unstoppable nature of the river as a parallel to moving forward
Movin' on
Emphasizing the idea of progression
My emotions move with the current and the wind
Describing emotional fluctuations influenced by external forces
No direction and no definite end
Feeling lost with no clear direction or definite conclusion
That's when I realized how the ripples
Realizing the significance of ripples in the water, symbolizing memories
In the water seemed to shine
Highlighting the shining ripples as reminiscent of a past relationship
Reminds me of you and I baby, at one point in time
Drawing a connection between the water's reflections and the past with a partner
And just like a river, like a river flowin', into a waterfall
Comparing love to a river, acknowledging the inevitable journey and challenges
After falling are we moving on, I can feel the flow
Sensing the flow and potential progress after a fall, akin to a waterfall
Under the train bridge, it keeps movin' on
Observing the river under a train bridge, emphasizing its continuous movement
Goes down to the whirlpool, it keeps movin' on
Noting the river's path, including the whirlpool, symbolizing life's unpredictable aspects
No still waters baby, gonna hold me down
Asserting that no calm waters can hinder personal growth
All I want to know is, are you comin' with me
Pondering if the partner will join in the journey
