"River" lyrics - DARREN CRISS

It's comin' on Christmas
They're cuttin' down trees
They're puttin' up reindeer
Singin' songs of joy and peace
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

But it don't snow here
It stays pretty green
Gonna make lots of money
Then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

[Chorus:]
I wish I had a river so long
I could teach my feet to fly
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
Oh, I made my baby cry

She tried hard to help me
She put me at ease
She loved me so naughty
Made me weak in the knees
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

But I'm so hard to handle
I'm selfish and I'm sad
And I've gone and lost
The best baby I ever had
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

[Chorus:]
Oh, I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I made my baby say goodbye

[Instrumental break]

[Bridge:]
It's comin' on Christmas
They're cuttin' down trees
Puttin' up reindeer
Singin' songs of joy and peace
Oh, I wish I had a river
I wish I had a river, yeah
I wish I had a river I could skate away on

[Outro:]
(Dum, dum, dum) Merry, merry, merry Christmas
(Dum, dum) Merry, merry, merry Christmas
(Dum, dum) Merry, merry, merry Christmas
(Dum, dum) And have yourself a happy new year
(Dum, dum, dum) Merry, merry, merry Christmas (Ooh)
(Dum, dum) Merry, merry, merry Christmas (Ooh)
(Dum, dum) Merry, merry, merry Christmas (Ooh)
(Dum, dum) And have yourself a happy new year
(Dum, dum, dum) Merry, merry, merry Christmas (Ooh)
(Dum, dum) Merry, merry, merry Christmas (Wah-wah-wah-wah)
(Dum, dum) Merry, merry, merry Christmas
(Dum, dum) And have yourself a happy new year
