We walked along the rocks for nearly an hour
I caught the way you looked at me in the sunlight
You took something before you went in the shower

You have suppressed that make you feel uptight

If I had known you couldn't swim we would have never gone in


I left my love IN THE RIVER
The only one who sees

I lost his hand in the color
It was the life I WANTED and I HOPED for
And now I'm left sifting through the leaves


His arms so hard, I saw his skin through this t-shirt
They grabbed so tight, he knew they wouldn't defend

We climbed into the stream so no one will be heard
And in no time it wasn't a sound


If I had known you couldn't swim we would have never gone in

I left my love IN THE RIVER

The only one who sees
I lost his hand in the color
It was the life I WANTED and I HOPED for

And now I'm left sifting through the leaves

No color to his skin, I follow next of kin

No color to his skin

I left my love in the river

The only one I see
I lost his hand in the color
And now I have grown through the trees
