Brynn Elliott - River Lyrics

Brynn Elliott Lyrics

"River"
(originally by Joni Mitchell)

It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

But it don't snow here
It stays pretty green
I'll make a lotta money
Then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I made my baby cry
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

I'm so hard to handle
I'm selfish and I'm sad
I've gone and lost the best baby
That I ever had
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I made my baby say goodbye
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
Putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
Well, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
