Our little town is dying and there
Boarding up the windows you could
Shoot a bullet down main street
There`s no one around
I ran into Ronnie and he`s
Got a new baby he was
Never even gonna get married
He swore up and down
Everything is changing but
Chorus
My love is a shining river
It won`t ever stop rolling
It`ll never quit flowing
Just like water
I know it`s hard to believe me
When everything else is ending
My love goes on forever
Like a shining river
I have had two faces and I`ve
Pushed you to places without
Thinking if I pushed to hard
You might never come back
We were like a summer we were
Bound to be over just like
Everything else in the world
But now I know that
I`ll spend my life proven that
Chorus 2x
Boarding up the windows you could
Shoot a bullet down main street
There`s no one around
I ran into Ronnie and he`s
Got a new baby he was
Never even gonna get married
He swore up and down
Everything is changing but
Chorus
My love is a shining river
It won`t ever stop rolling
It`ll never quit flowing
Just like water
I know it`s hard to believe me
When everything else is ending
My love goes on forever
Like a shining river
I have had two faces and I`ve
Pushed you to places without
Thinking if I pushed to hard
You might never come back
We were like a summer we were
Bound to be over just like
Everything else in the world
But now I know that
I`ll spend my life proven that
Chorus 2x
