The River

Lyrics by：Alicia Keys/Johnny McDaid

I'm alone in a corner

Of a one-room apartment

Dirty windows let the light in

Through my fingers and make patterns on the carpet

Heavy footsteps on the ceiling

And the sirens in the distance

Drown the sound of playing children

I am alone here in a crowd of seven million

I know there's more to life than this

'Cause something's calling me

So I'll follow the river

So I'll follow the river

And I'm gonna catch the wind 'cause I'm dying to begin

So I'll follow the the river

Follow the river

Follow the river

There's a heartbeat out on these streets yeah

There's a bonfire that set a light inside of me

There's no army that can stop me

Watch how strong I'm gonna be when they said I couldn't be

I know there's more to life than this

'Cause something's calling me

So I'll follow the river

So I'll follow the river

And I'm gonna catch the wind 'cause I'm dying to begin

So I'll follow the the river

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Follow the river

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah

Follow the river

Follow the river

I know there's more to life than this

'Cause something's calling me
