Build me a river within my thoughts 

Build me a boat I can put my songs in 

Build me a river within my thoughts 

Won't you build me a boat I can put my songs in 

Oh yeah and send them to him 



He was the singer for me, don't you know it 

Found love in the strength of his song 

When I'm weary and I know that he's gone 

I just drink, drink deep 

Drink the sweet wine of his song 



Oh drink!
