LYRICS:

Run, run, little river, run.  Take me back where I belong

Flow, flow, like a river, flow.  Pour some peace down in my soul

Pour some peace down in my soul.

 

Dry and dusty, an old friend waits patiently         

Though it’s been a while I still feel right at home 

Something’s weighin’ on me, and my mind needs space to roam

 

I might be rusty, and somehow, you don’t judge me

You just keep me moving, one step at a time

I feel myself let go, and I know it’ll be fine 

 

Run run run, run little river, run

Take me back, take me back, take me back where I belong

Flow like a river, flow like a river, flow

And pour some peace down in my soul

 

Time is funny. It stands still, or gone completely

Just a gift unseen that softly came and went

With you, there is no doubt, it’s always time well-spent

 

Run run run, run little river, run

Take me back, take me back, take me back where I belong

Flow like a river, flow like a river, flow

And pour some peace down in my soul.  Oh, oh oh

 

The desert wind dances all around, as the clouds roll in

Then rain sweetly plays her melody, an old forgotten hymn: 

 

Run, run, little river, run.  Take me back where I belong

Flow, flow, like a river, flow.  Pour some peace down in my soul.

Pour some peace down in my soul

 

Run run run, run little river, run

Take me back, take me back, take me back where I belong. Run, run, run!

Flow like a river, flow like a river, flow

And pour some peace, pour some peace

Pour some peace, down in my soul

 

Run, run, little river, run
