"Like A River Runs" lyrics

"Like A River Runs"

I woke up thinking you were still here
My hands shaking with regret
I've held this dream for such a long, long time

And I wanna get up
To the rhythm of a wild, to the rhythm of a wild heart
That beats, that beats like a rolling drum

I saw you standing on the corner
I saw you standing on your own
And I get the feeling that it's, it's all a dream

And I wanna get up
To the rhythm of a wild, to the rhythm of a wild heart
That beats, that beats like a drum

When I fall asleep, I can see your face
What I lost in you I will not replace
And I could run away, I could let them down
But I will remember your light

Your light, it follows me in darkness
I'm trying hard, but I can't win
And I've played the victim for a long, long time

And I wanna grow up
From the rhythm of a young, from the rhythm of a younger heart
It leads just like a river runs

Tonight, I sit over the parkway
The summer's gone and I'm alone
And I get the feeling that you're somewhere close

And I wanna get up
To the rhythm of your wild, to the rhythm of your wild heart
It beats, been beating since you've gone

When I fall asleep, I can see your face
What I lost in you I will not replace
And I could run away, I could let them down
But I will remember your light

When I fall asleep, I can see your face (I don't walk alone)
What I lost in you I will not replace (No, I don't walk alone)
And I could run away, I could let them down
And I know you're gone, but still
I will remember your light

(I will remember)
(I will remember)
(I will remember)
(I will remember)

And if you see me in the darkness
I hope you know I'm not alone
I carry you with every breath I take
And I won't let up, I won't let up, oh
Until the wind is gone
