Bring me your tears
And I will dry them all
If you reach too high- I'll be there for you
If you should fall
Bring me your dreams
And I will make them mine
Never stop dreamin'- for only through dreams
Can you touch the sky
I'll be your guardian angel
Keeping the shadows from you
I'll be your light in the darkness
My love will see you through
May you grow strong forever free
May you become all you can be
May you live each day- as the river runs
High may you soar with clouds in your eyes
May you find joy all the days of your life
May you carry on- as the river runs
In your innocent eyes
I see so much of me
The best of what I used to be
I'm still trying to find
With eyes so full of wonder- imagining sweet possibilities
You have the power to make your life-
All that you can dream it to be
May you grow strong forever free
May you become all you can be
May you live each day- as the river runs
High may you soar with clouds in your eyes
May you find joy all the days of your life
May you carry on- as the river runs
Sleep now my child- my precious one
May you only know peace
Tomorrow is yours- may it be
All that you want it to be
May you grow strong forever free
May you become all you can be
May you live each day- as the river runs
High may you soar with clouds in your eyes
May you find joy all the days of your life
May you carry on- as the river runs
All of my life- as the river runs
Every day your life- as the river runs
Every day of your life- as the river runs
As the river runs
