Jon Allen - Back To The River

I don't owe nobody nothin' here
Nobody owes me nothin' in return
There's not a thing this place has given me
Didn't take a broken heart to earn

I need to go where I can find some peace
Far from the chaos in my mind
Don't wanna wait another lonely day
In my soul, I do believe it's time

I'm goin' back to the river
Back where the water's clean
Back to the river
Back to that bygone dream

I hear the chatter going 'round the town
Hear people sayin' I'm insane
I just wanna let those waters cover me
Until my body feels no pain

I've made my way along the crooked path
Now I got nothin' left to fear
Feel like I'm turnin' into somethin' new
The river's tellin' me my time is near

I'm goin' back to the river
Back where the water's clean
Back to the river
Back to that bygone dream

I'm goin' back to the river
Back where the water's clean
Back to the river
Back to that bygone dream
