More Like a River

There's a motel in Texas

Hard bed under wide blue sky

I had a dream there

But morning came too soon

I roll over and I said it out loud

I said: Give me one more moment

Just one more moment

To finish this dream

I wanna be more like a river

And less like a wall

Not try to hold back

These feelings at all

'Cause when I miss you

When I'm dying to kiss you

I gotta let that flow

More like a river

There's a house in the mountains

Filled with pits of me and you

I had a dream there

But morning came too soon

I've been holding on

It's been holding me back

I don't wanna give in

But I know what you'd say to me

Finish this dream

Can I be more like a river

And less like a wall

Not try to hold back

These feelings at all

'Cause when I miss you

When I'm dying to kiss you

I gotta let that flow

More like a river

'Cause in the mornings

There are kids, and dogs, and bills, and sunlight

And a new day, and a new day

And another new day without you
