What is the answer to the 'bed but never sleep, mouth but never speak' riddle?

The answer is a river. A river has a riverbed but never sleeps, a mouth where it meets the sea but never speaks, and it runs without any feet.

Why is a river the answer to this riddle?

Each clue is a hidden double meaning: a river runs along its 'bed', empties through its 'mouth', and 'runs' downhill toward the sea, all without sleeping, speaking, or having feet.

Is this an easy or hard riddle?

It is a medium-difficulty logic riddle. The wordplay on 'bed', 'mouth', and 'run' makes it tricky, but the geography hint about mountains and the sea points straight to a river.
