I'll be there like the morning sun I'll be gone like that river runs If it's not what you wished for Late night, it keeps you up Until the sun comes up Let the river run Tell my secrets By these words I've sworn Time is keeping But I am moving on I'll be there like the morning sun I'll be gone like that river runs When it's not what you wished for Late night, it keeps you up Let the morning come Let the river run Tell my best friends I am leaving town I hope I let you down gently Hope your feelings are found Yeah, I'll be there like the morning sun I'll be gone like that river runs When it's not what you wished for Late night, it keeps you up Let the morning come Let the river run And the river runs But the river runs you down Where the fire won't go Where the answers lie Between the darkness glow When you can't decide And when you can't let go I'll be there like the morning sun I'll be gone like that river runs If it's not what you wished for Late night, it keeps you up Let the morning come Let the river run The river runs On the shallow shores As that river dries Like a silent voice Telling simple lies I'll be there like the morning sun I'll be gone like that river runs If it's not what you wished for Late night, it keeps you up Let the morning come I'll be there like the morning sun I'll be gone like that river runs When it's not what you wished for Late night, it keeps you up Let the morning come Let the river run Let the river run
