"The River" is a song by Australian singer-songwriter Delta Goodrem, released as the fourth single from her fifth studio album, Wings of the Wild (2016).

[citation needed][1][2] The song tells the story of a woman walking in on her lover cheating on her, and murdering him as a result.

Cameron Adams of news.com.au likened the song to Adele's "Rolling in the Deep" and Beyoncé's "Daddy Lessons", saying that it "demonstrates in three minutes that 15 years into her career she’s still able to surprise".

The video ends with Goodrem going to a river, with several people draped in white cloth lowering her down into the water, cleansing her of her bad relationships and allowing her to start anew.
