"The River Rise" lyrics
Oh the river rise
And it's a mile high
Is this worth drawing?
Is this worth trying?
'Cause I could fall like a tear
There's nothing else I can do
When I'm not alone
Nothing's beside me
What one eye sees
The other's blinding
But I could fall as if I was young
With a lifetime to think of you
Fire one for losing
And two for hiding
Keep river moving
Moving right by me
I could fall
If there's nothing else I can do
Oh, the river rise
And it's a mile high
Has this world drowned?
Has this world tried?
'Cause I could fall like a tear
There's nothing else I can do
Up on the river rise
She's a mile high
And it's a mile high
Is this worth drawing?
Is this worth trying?
'Cause I could fall like a tear
There's nothing else I can do
When I'm not alone
Nothing's beside me
What one eye sees
The other's blinding
But I could fall as if I was young
With a lifetime to think of you
Fire one for losing
And two for hiding
Keep river moving
Moving right by me
I could fall
If there's nothing else I can do
Oh, the river rise
And it's a mile high
Has this world drowned?
Has this world tried?
'Cause I could fall like a tear
There's nothing else I can do
Up on the river rise
She's a mile high
