Old Man Luedecke - Just Like A River lyrics

Just like a river, I'll carve my own valley Just like a mountain, I'll stand all alone Just like a cloud, I'll uncover a sunset If this world is it, I'll make it my home If this world is it, I will make it my home Standing by highways, I'll thumb my way over Standing by oceans, I'll listen to poems Standing in cities, I'll sing out the warnings If this world is it, I'll make it my home If this world is it, I will make it my home 'Cause I've been to the bottom of fear and self-loathing And in all of that darkness, love came along Though I still know my way down to that basement I leave it behind when I hear these songs I leave it behind when I hear these songs Against the armies of darkness, I'll ride out to meet them Against the haters and halfbaked, I'll win them with song Careerists in power, I'll sweep out the ashes If this world is it, I'll make it my home If this world is it, I will make it my home 'Cause I've been to the bottom of fear and self-loathing And in all of that darkness, love came a long Though I still know my way down to that basement I leave it behind when I hear these songs I leave it behind when I hear these songs Lying with you love, we'll move from the center Lying like gra**, our love will grow long Lying like Whitman, we'll love everybody If this world is it, we'll make it our home If this world is it, we will make it our home If fear and doubt are our greatest rivals If action and joy can carry us a long If hard work and hope trump hard luck and trouble If this world is it, we'll make it our home If this world is it, we will make it our home 'Cause we've been to the bottom of fear and self-loathing And in all of that darkness, love came a long Though we still know our way down to that basement We leave it behind when we sing these songs Leave it behind when we sing these songs
