The river's wide
That I could not swim across it
So I convinced myself I'd walked upon the waves
The river's wide
That I could not swim across it
So I convinced myself I'd walked upon the waves
But I lied
And I knew I lied
Did everything I did to soothe the family pride
And I just don't think I can keep it up now
'Cause I never heard Jesus speak to me
Not in any way that I consider speakin'
But I bowed my head just the same
Though I did find some tears when they played that song
But for the four right chords I will play along
I have always been that way
It doesn't matter what the lyrics say
And into safer arms we run
With a thorn in our side
And the devil's inside
So who are we runnin' from?
And into stranger arms we run
Such a thorn in our side
When the devil's implied
Oh, what have we done?
That I could not swim across it
So I convinced myself I'd walked upon the waves
The river's wide
That I could not swim across it
So I convinced myself I'd walked upon the waves
But I lied
And I knew I lied
Did everything I did to soothe the family pride
And I just don't think I can keep it up now
'Cause I never heard Jesus speak to me
Not in any way that I consider speakin'
But I bowed my head just the same
Though I did find some tears when they played that song
But for the four right chords I will play along
I have always been that way
It doesn't matter what the lyrics say
And into safer arms we run
With a thorn in our side
And the devil's inside
So who are we runnin' from?
And into stranger arms we run
Such a thorn in our side
When the devil's implied
Oh, what have we done?
