Lyrics
The River
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well it started a long time ago
When we both were young
We played the radio
But too much dreamings come undone
Too much dreaming, no harm done
We used to steal the show
With the sounds we made
You're in some songs I wrote
What it means I would not say
What it means I could not say
But, I see you my friend
I'll meet you on the river
I need time to mend
I'll meet you on the river
Meet you on the river
Meet you on the river
Well, it ended cold and sad
One December night
You left and hurt me bad
I wish we'd never had that fight
Who was wrong and who was right?
Who cares now? I'm alone tonight
I'm sorry now
I should have said that years ago
But time's allowed me
To let it go
