The River Lyrics

by Lara Landon

How can it be that the one
I thought I knew best
Looks through me like a stranger
And gives me nothing but silence?
Not much now to say
I guess we've both stopped asking for
The same things from this life - together
But there is a river there is a river

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e77908-lara_landon~the_river_lyrics.html ]
We've grown apart
It sounds so vague and so cliche
It makes me sick - but I'm used to it

Just another painful day
We've both been disappointed
Did not get what we wanted
Let's not go losing what we do
You still have me and I still have you

There is a river fire water
There is a river flowing over
Let's go down and let it cover all of this

I'm not giving up I simply can not try
Whatever happens happens
I've become too numb inside
I need something to wake me
Something to finally make me hope again
Enough get out of this place I'm in and

There is a river fire water
There is a river flowing over
Let's go down and let it cover all of this

I'm scared you're scared
Of what we've yet to say
We might get swept away
In this murky water
I'm terrified of what I might find
But it's the only way
So let's just go together
Take my hand - hold on to me
There's a river flowing from the throne
Let's get swept away it's our only hope
Let's go now - down down down
One more last chance

There is a river fire water
There is a river flowing over
Let's go down and let it cover all of this
