DAVID USHER lyrics : "the river"

I remember that I found you

Just waiting in the dark


Took me to the river where we always fell apart


And we lay amongst the rocks naked in the sand

Waiting for the moment that we hoped would never end


And I came to you for comfort but it never stopped the pain


I remember we were smiling as our bodies tore away




So take me to the river I can almost feel it


The water's washing over me and I don't even mind

And I know that you're screaming I can barely hear it


The water's washing over me and I don't even mind


I don't even mind




Woke up in the morning as the ice began to freeze


You tried to stop the current and the changing of the leaves

But I was frozen in the spotlight burns like the sun


Waiting for a moment that I knew would never come


So I held you close for comfort but it couldn't stop the pain

Knew that we were dying as our bodies tore away





So take me to the river I can almost feel it

The water's washing over me and I don't even mind


And I know that you're screaming I can barely hear it


The water's washing over me and I don't even mind

I don't even mind





There by the shore I am raw

I can almost taste it


Hope like a drug in the blood


I can feel it coming

Walk 'til we fall 'til we crawl


I can almost taste it


There in the blood like a drug

I can hear it coming





I wash away
