[Verse 1]
There’s something in my heart
And it feels like fire
There's a yearnin’ in the river
And it feels like home
Take me down, take me down to the water
[Chorus]
I need time
Give me time
[Banjo Interlude]
[Verse 2]
The old Shenandoah gonna keep me right
And hold me like I was forgiven
Take me down, and let the beachwood light
[Chorus]
I need time
Give me time
[Refrain]
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
[Verse 3]
Tellin’ myself to keep good faith
There ain’t much these days to celebrate
Pullin’ my hoodie over my face
[Chorus]
I need time
Give me time
[Refrain]
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
[Banjo Interlude]
[Verse 4]
Take my name when I'm dead and gone
And throw my ashes in the river
Know that I lived my whole life long
And gave all the love that I could’ve given
[Refrain]
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
