The River

Its better to tell your secrets to someone who can't repeat them.

Sit down beside me

And watch my current flow

Tell me all the things

That no one else can know

Tell me of your heartbreak 

Your defeats and your lies

I'll listen quietly to your secrets 

About all the things and people you despise

Let your words get lost in my rumble 

Let them swim with my fish to the seas

They'll rush and fall and tumble 

They'll put your soul to ease 

When you feel much better

Having everything off your chest 

You can walk away with confidence

Because the river keeps secrets the best.
