Lyrics - That Song About The River

I was in a tunnel

And couldn't see the light

And whenever I'd look up

I couldn't see the sky

Sometimes when I'm standin'

It seems like I done walked for miles

And my heart could be cryin'

Dead in the middle of a smile

But then I climbed the hills

And saw the mountains

I hollered help 'cause I was lost

Then I felt the strong wind

Heard a small voice sayin'

The storm is over

(The storm is over now)

And I can see the sunshine

(Somewhere beyond the clouds)

I feel Heaven, yeah

(Heaven is over me)

Come on and set me free, whoa

Now in the midst of my battle

All hope was gone

Downtown in a rushed crowd

And felt all alone

And every now and then

I felt like I would lose my mind

I've been racin' for years

And still no finish line, oh

But then I climbed the hills

And saw the mountains (Mountains)

I hollered help 'cause I was lost

Then I felt the strong wind

And then a small voice sayin'

The storm is over

(The storm is over now)

And I can see the sunshine

(Somewhere beyond the clouds)

I can feel Heaven, yeah

(Heaven is over me)

Come on and set me free

Somehow my beginning stepped right in (Right in)

Then faith became my friend (My friend)

And now I can depend

On the voices of the wind

When it's sayin' (Sayin')

The storm is over

(The storm is over now)

And I can see the sunshine

(Somewhere beyond the clouds)

I can feel Heaven, yeah

(Heaven is over me)

Won't you come and set me free

Won't you set me free

The storm is over

(The storm is over now)

And I can see the sunshine

(Somewhere beyond the clouds)

I can feel Heaven, yeah

(Heaven is over me)

Won't you come and set me free

[Ad lib until fade]
