Lyrics Alison Krauss

Alison Krauss

Gentle River

I've lived a life full of sorrow

With no where to run or to hide

Happiness you'll see is borrowed

All I want is you by my side

Gentle river take me away

To the time of happier days

All I need is love and company

Gentle river bring him back to me

You can spend all your time a-cryin´

Listen here I don't need your sympathy

Cause I've made my life to live it

All I need is you here with me

Gentle river take me away

To the time of happier days

All I need is love and company

Gentle river bring him back to me

Gentle river bring him back to me
