If I’m going to cross that river
I’m going to need some shoes that float
They’d better be quite capable
To lift my heavy load
My heavy heavy load
Cuz by the morning’s light
When wave tips are dazzling bright
That’s when the others will arrive
Wearing their inside out smiles
If I’m going over county lines
To stay ahead of their words that float
I’m not looking back at that bad river
I’ve always got my eyes on the road
If I’m getting on that very last flight
To rise above all their thoughts that float
See the river as a ribbon
which, without direction, has roamed
Cuz by the morning’s light
When wave tips are dazzling bright
That’s when the others will arrive
Wearing their inside out smiles
