No Way Around A River Lyrics - Phil Stacey - Phil Stacey

You keep closing your eyes 

Trying to ignore it, hoping it'll disappear 

Face to face with your own Goliath 

At least that's how it looks from here 

All the stones you can throw won't scare it away 

Pacing back and forth, trying to think of something 

To get you to the other side 

The path of your fear runs in all directions 

When you're looking for a place to hide 

But you know the one you've gotta take 

There's no way around a river baby 

Wade on in the deep 

When you can't go any further 

Hold on to me 

And if it pulls you under I'll be there too 

There's no way around a river baby 

It's just something you've gotta go through 

The troubles you face, the wounds you're protecting 

The sins that you wrestle with 

We all have our share we'd like to get over 

Sometimes there's just no bridge 

And the very thing that makes us afraid 

Is just what we need to wash it away 

There's no way around a river baby 

Wade on in the deep 

And when you can't go any further 

Hold on to me 

And if it pulls you under I'll be there too 

There's no way around a river, baby 

It's just something you've gotta go through 

That's the way it is so just wade on in 

I'll see you on the other side 

No way around it, no way around a river baby 

Wade on in, wade on in 

And if it pulls you under, I'll be there too 

There's no way around a river, baby 

It's just something you've gotta go through 

Oh yes it is, yes it is 

Oh, no way around it 

No way around a river baby 

Wade on in, wade on in, yeah, yeah
