Like a battered sailor
I lean against my trailer
We've sailed across a wild and dusty sea

All my family's ever known
Broken dreams and busted bones
Hard to think of all the times we've cried

Mother and my only child
Love a man who's running wild
Many of my promises have died

[Chorus]
So Greeh River,
Yes I'm back again
Down to my last friend
Take me round the bend
Guess I'll never know
Where I want to go
If I could be like you
I'd just flow

How can I forget that night
Kissed her tears by candlelight
And said I would return to set us free

But the white lines followed me awhile
Made me chase his lonely smile
And I'm about as lost as I can be

The winter sun is going down
And I can see the lights of town
Turn my back on what I've left behind

All the faded rainbow colors
Just run into one another
And I'm still searching for some peace of mind

Repeat Chorus
