"No Way Around A River" Lyrics
No Way Around A River Written By Connie Harrington and Barry Dean
You keep closing your eyes, tryin' to ignore it
Hoping it'll disappear
Face to face with your own Goliath
Least that's how it looks from here
And all the stones you can throw won't scare it away
Pacing back and forth tryin' to think of something
To get you to the other side
The path of your fear runs in all directions
When your looking for a place to hide
You know the one you gotta take
There's no way around a river, baby
Wade on in the deep
And when you can't go any further
Hold on to me
And if it pulls you under
I'll be there too
There's no way around a river, baby
It's just something you gotta go through
The troubles you face, the wounds you're protecting
The sins that you wrestle with
We all have our share
We'd like to get over
Sometimes there's just no bridge
And the very thing that makes us afraid
Is just what we need to wash it away
There's no way around a river, baby
Wade on in the deep
And when you can't go any further
Hold on to me
And if it pulls you under
I'll be there too
There's no way around a river, baby
It's just something you gotta go through
That's the way it is
So just wade on it
I'll see you on the other side
No way around it
No way around a river, baby
Wade on in
Wade on in
And if it pulls you under
I'll be there to
There's no way around a river, baby
It's just something you gotta go through
Yes it is, yes it is
Oh, no way around it
No way around the river, baby
Wade on in
Wade on in
You keep closing your eyes, tryin' to ignore it
Hoping it'll disappear
Face to face with your own Goliath
Least that's how it looks from here
And all the stones you can throw won't scare it away
Pacing back and forth tryin' to think of something
To get you to the other side
The path of your fear runs in all directions
When your looking for a place to hide
You know the one you gotta take
There's no way around a river, baby
Wade on in the deep
And when you can't go any further
Hold on to me
And if it pulls you under
I'll be there too
There's no way around a river, baby
It's just something you gotta go through
The troubles you face, the wounds you're protecting
The sins that you wrestle with
We all have our share
We'd like to get over
Sometimes there's just no bridge
And the very thing that makes us afraid
Is just what we need to wash it away
There's no way around a river, baby
Wade on in the deep
And when you can't go any further
Hold on to me
And if it pulls you under
I'll be there too
There's no way around a river, baby
It's just something you gotta go through
That's the way it is
So just wade on it
I'll see you on the other side
No way around it
No way around a river, baby
Wade on in
Wade on in
And if it pulls you under
I'll be there to
There's no way around a river, baby
It's just something you gotta go through
Yes it is, yes it is
Oh, no way around it
No way around the river, baby
Wade on in
Wade on in

Loved hearing it, too, with the whole band, at the Opry. It was very touching how he preceded singing it by talking about St. Jude's, in that one youtube clip. Thanks for the lyrics!
