I Am a River Lyrics
There is a secret, I found a secret behind the SoHo door.
There is a reason, I found a reason beneath the subway floor.
I found the water, the devil's water and walked along its shore.
Is that what you want?
Your channel's changing, the heart is racing, from voices on the wire.
The soul is yearning, the coal is burning, the ember starts a fire.
Can we recover love for each other?
The measure of your life.
Is that what you want?
Is that what you really want?
A river, a river.
A river running underground.
A river, a river.
Is that what you want?
Is that what you really want?
I, I, I am a river.
I, I, I am a river.
I, I, I am a river.
I, I, I am a river.
Is that what you want?
Is that what you really want?
I, I, I am a river.
I, I, I am a river.
I, I, I am a river.
I, I, I am a river.
I am a river.
I, I, I am a river.
I, I, I am a river.
I, I, I am a river.
There is a reason, I found a reason beneath the subway floor.
I found the water, the devil's water and walked along its shore.
The soul is yearning, the coal is burning, the ember starts a fire.
Can we recover love for each other?
The measure of your life.
Is that what you really want?
A river running underground.
A river, a river.
Is that what you want?
Is that what you really want?
I, I, I am a river.
I, I, I am a river.
I, I, I am a river.
Is that what you really want?
I, I, I am a river.
I, I, I am a river.
I, I, I am a river.
I, I, I am a river.
I, I, I am a river.
He, he, he is a river. This song is about Dave Grohl being a river. What more can you say?
Great song, by the way!
In an interview to Jimmy Fallon's show, Dave explained that the song is about an underground river that used to stream under New York City - "Minetta Creek". He says: "I thought that its a beautiful idea that something natural and pre-historic runs underneath NYC. Maybe we are all connected by something like that."
This song is clearly about Kurt.
This song is nothing more than about the studio called the" Magic Shop" in NYC they recorded the song in in . There is a river that flows underneath it. All the songs on Sonic Highways are about the cities history in which they recorded each song in. Nothing more. Nothing less.
