"Riverbank" lyrics

Last night there was a killing frost
The morning birds talked about it all day
Made it like the trees were singing
Like the killing wasn't in vein

The sun hits your face through the window
You still look like 28
And I wouldn't trade where we are right now for anything

If life was a riverbank
Mine would take the shape of you
Only spelling out your name
Always moving night and day
Even when the years wash it away
My love remains

You were born to be a mother
I hope you know that's not everything you are
Colors fade and bones will weather
But all I know is how beautiful you are

If life was a riverbank
Mine would take the shape of you
Only spelling out your name
Always moving night and day
Even when the years wash it away
My love remains

I wish my love was a mirror
And it was clear and you could see what I see
Not one single line not one drop of time
Could change what you mean to me

If life was a riverbank
Mine would take the shape of you
Only spelling out your name
Always moving night and day
Even when the years wash it away
Even when the years wash it away
My love remains
Hmm my love remains
