Sail My Vessel Lyrics - Garth Brooks

The River 

You know a dream is like a river sun dry or how 

Ever changing as it flows 

And a dreamer's just a vessel 

That must follow where it goes 

Trying to learn from what's behind you 

And never knowing what's in store 

Makes each day a constant battle 

Just to stay between the shores and 

I will sail my vessel 

'Til the river runs dry 

Like a bird upon the wind 

These waters are my sky

I'll never reach my destination 

If I never try 

So I will sail my vessel 

'Til the river runs dry 

Too many times we stand aside 

And let the waters slip away 

'Til what we put off 'til tomorrow 

Has now become today 

So don't you sit upon the shoreline 

And say you're satisfied 

Choose to chance the rapids 

And dare to dance the tide, yes 

I will sail my vessel 

'Til the river runs dry 

Like a bird upon the wind 

These waters are my sky

I'll never reach my destination 

If I never try 

So I will sail my vessel 

'Til the river runs dry 

There's bound to be rough waters 

And I know I'll take some falls 

But with the good Lord, as my captain 

I can make it through them all, yes 

I will sail my vessel 

'Til the river runs dry 

Like a bird upon the wind 

These waters are my sky 

I'll never reach my destination 

If I never try 

So I will sail my vessel 

'Til the river runs dry 

Yes, I will sail my vessel 

'Til the river runs dry 

'Til the river runs dry
