Woke up one morning to find tracks in the I to follow them to find from where they came Over a hill and then a bridge Down by a riverbank I stood a ridge
a voice in the meadow, accompanied by rain - Such a sound to behold - was this refrain:
There's a to cross, a mountain to climb A bridge for you to over the tide When the is deep, the valley is low Wash away troubles and watch that river flow
I followed that sound in the that were said Got me out of a cabin where a gun was to bed I'd laid low for the things I had done Then words appeared to me on the tip of my tongue
I can't stop singing them over and again Don't remember not knowing them, or it all began It's some ancient someone came over a hill Sayin' you might you know something but you don't know nothing 'til...
There's a to cross, a mountain to climb A bridge for you to build over the When the water is deep, the is low Wash your troubles and watch that river flow
So I'm carrying this with me everywhere When my burden gets heavy amidst most all my Through life we're living, you got to take it day by day You never what's coming or going along the way
There's a song for every person, a cure for pain keep singing, you'll find tracks in the rain
There's a to cross, a mountain to climb A bridge for you to build the tide the water is deep and the valley is low Wash away troubles, and let that river flow
