I took a walk today through these grey
|
and dirty streets
|
Thinking of you, missing you,
|
and hoping that we'd meet
|
I didn't tell my legs where to go
|
They just walked down to the dock
|
I sat on the edge fighting a shiver
|
Telling everything I hurt inside
|
|
refrain:
|
And the river cried 'cause I lost your love
|
The river cried, oh
|
The river cried for my lonely soul
|
The river cried
|
You were the only one who really knew me
|
You were the only one in whom I'd confide
|
And hearing this
|
The river cried
|
|
I saw myself today through these grey
|
and dirty streets
|
Did you have to leave this town
|
or did you just have to leave me?
|
All these questions echo in my mind
|
Why didn't I see the signs?
|
The river keeps flowing, I can't keep going
|
Waiting for you to return my sigh.
|
|
refrain
