When I reach to hold you, I'll still be alone
|
When I heard the ringin of the telephone
|
I'll think it is you
|
It will not be true
|
|
I know why the river runs
|
To a place somewhere far away
|
I know why the sky is cryin
|
When there aren't any words to say
|
|
I could play the message that you left for me
|
I can hear your voice and I could still believe
|
That you will send me home
|
But you will never come
|
|
I know why the river runs
|
To a place somewhere far away
|
I know why the sky is cryin
|
When there aren't any words to say
|
|
There's a silence that I don't want to keep
|
There's a hole now where my heart used to be
|
They say that healing comes in time
|
But I don't know what that means
|
|
I lie here for so long
|
But you will never come
|
|
I know why the river runs
|
To a place somewhere far away
|
I know why the sky is cryin
|
When there aren't any words to say
|
|
I know why the river runs
|
To a place somewhere far away
|
I know why the sky is cryin
|
When there aren't any words to say
|
