Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
When my soul crashed into my body Falling into consciousness That's when my mind began this illusion Of taking it step after step I looked into mother's eyes I said tell me what I should believe She drew me a room with a light and said Just turn it off when you leave Slow, slow, this river is slow We're all out here on our own Row, row, gently we row One day we'll find our way home Step after step They drew me a town They drew me a fear and a need They drew me a god and They drew me some money Hiding the truth far from me I asked the cool fire light Tell me, what I should believe And they gave me a song And they gave me a dance And said sleep now your pain will relieve Slow, slow, this river is slow And we're all out here on our own Row, row, gently we row And one day we'll find our way home I've stumbled and crawled I've begged to know why And I've been ashamed When I've chosen to lie In all of this darkness I have searched for a light To come and find me And when I found me I wrapped my arms round My own daughter as she fell into her place and time And as her mind creates her illusions I won't complicate her's with mine She looked into her mother's eyes She said tell me what I should believe And I drew her a door And I drew her a key And I said when you're ready you'll come and find me And we'll walk out of here and tomorrow will be a new day Slow, slow, this river is slow And you are never out here on your own Row, row, gently we row Oh And together we'll find our way Slow, slow, this river is slow Life is not what it seems Row, row, gently we row The truth is It's only a dream
