Across the River Lyrics

Cover art for Across the River lyrics by Bruce Hornsby

It seems this is a song about a girl from a small town who wants to make it in Hollywood. She made a go of it but things didn't work out and she came back home. Even still, she still plans to continue following her dream despite, the negativity of those around her. One of Bruce Hornsby's best!

@jakkijelene To me it sounds like the girl may have given up, but it won't stop the narrator or others like them trying to make it where she didn't.
