The River

歌詞

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of LA The footsteps that were next to me have gone their separate ways I've seen enough now to know that beautiful things don't always stay that way I've done enough now to know this beautiful place isn't everything they say I heard that evil comes disguised like the city of angels I'm walking towards the light Baptized in the river I've seen a vision of my life And I wanna be delivered In the city was a sinner I've done a lot of things wrong But I swear I'm a believer Like the prodigal son I was out on my own Now I'm trying to find my way back home Baptized in the river I'm delivered I'm delivered You're from a small town You're gonna grow up fast underneath these lights Down in Hollywood on the boulevard The dead come back to life To the praying Mother and the worried Father Let your children go If they come back They'll come home stronger And if they don't you'll know They say that evil comes disguised like the city of angels I'm walking towards the light Baptized in the river I've seen a vision of my life And I wanna be delivered In the city was a sinner I've done a lot of things wrong But I swear I'm a believer Like the prodigal son I was out on my own Now I'm trying to find my way back home Baptized in the river I'm delivered I'm delivered Baptized in the river on my own Baptized in the river on my own I wanna be delivered on my own on my own Baptized in the river on my own I wanna be delivered Baptized in the river on my own I wanna be delivered Baptized in the river on my own I wanna be delivered I confess I'm a sinner I've seen a vision of my life And I wanna be delivered
