Many Rivers Lyrics

I think I'll pray for a boat and a raincoat
I think I'll pray for you
The time I waste with my soul on a stretcher
And all I put you through

And there are those who are scared of the dreamers
Their lies become their truths
I try so hard to be your kind of woman
I try so hard for you

But I have not run out
Although you thought I might
And I have not run dry
And coming from eyes are many rivers

If you can't breathe with your head underwater
Why should I be with you
So I'm left here all alone with a headtrip
And way too lost for you

And I have not run out
Although you thought I might
And I have not run dry
And coming from eyes are many rivers

I must follow where the deep water goes
I must follow you where nobody knows
I must follow where the deep water goes, it goes

And I have not run out
Although you thought I might
And I have not run dry
And coming from eyes

And I have felt the pain
And I have fought the fight
And I have been let down
And I have been alright
With many rivers

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
