Lyrics
Learn How to Roll
They say a lifetime runs like a river
Tonight I can see it roll
Dark and deep
Like a shadow falling on my soul
There?s a whole lot of tears in a river
A Whole lot of sorrow and pain
It can wash you clean
Cleaner than the morning rain
Maybe it?ll be all right
If I really try Chorus
Maybe I can learn to roll
On the river tonight
It starts out slow in the mountains
Picks up speed as it goes
It gets wilder and deeper
And faster every mile it flows
You can lose your faith on the rapids
Lose your way on the turns
But every day
It brings you a lesson to learn
(Chorus)
The snow comes down in the mountains
Finds its way to the shore
Then it keeps on changing
Till it?s back where it started before
Just like the snow in the mountains
Our journey never really ends
When we think it?s through
We start all over again
(Chorus)
