Keep the River on Your Right

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You build me up to tear me down Throw me in the fire You twist the things I say around And paint me as a liar [Pre-Chorus] Sometimes I don't know just what I'm doing But I can see exactly what I've done I have made my peace with my reflection And nothing you could do Nothing you could say would make me run [Chorus] So keep the river on your right, and keep walking And never let 'em look you in the eye Keep the river on your right, and keep walking Never ever let 'em see you cry [Verse 2] They tell you take it like a man Pain will make you stronger But this is not the path I planned And the road keeps getting longer [Pre-Chorus] The journey started out with good intentions I never thought my life would come undone No one ever took the time to mention Trouble always finds you Trouble always finds you when you run [Chorus] Keep the river on your right, and keep walking Never let 'em look you in the eye You keep the river on your right, and keep walking Never ever let 'em see you cry [Bridge] 'Cause even on the high road The devil's at your back Anyone will tell you, tell you that the [Pre-Chorus] Journey always starts with good intentions You never think your life will come undone Everybody's looking for redemption Well there are many rules to live by Me I'm only thinking of this one [Chorus] Keep the river on your right, and keep walking Never let 'em look you in the eye You keep the river on your right, keep walking Never ever let 'em see you, let 'em see you cry Keep the river on your right, and keep walking Never let 'em look you in the eye Keep the river on your right, and keep walking And never ever let 'em see you cry [Outro] Keep walking Keep walking, mmm
