Kate & Anna McGarrigle - Cool River lyrics

Cool river wash my tears away Let your blue waves hide me from the day It's the only way Cool river hear my plea Take me with you to the sea, to the sea I've waded knee-high in troubles not my own Now that I've got mine, I'm sinking all alone Cool river wash my tears away Let your blue waves hide me from the day It's the only way Cool river hear my plea Take me with you, to the sea, to the sea I have tried praying To God and his saints on high But they don't hear me I'm gonna kiss this world good-bye Cool river wash my tears away To the sea, to the sea To the sea, to the sea
