River Of Love Lyrics - Twenty Twenty - The Essential T Bone Burnett - Burnett T-bone

There's a river of love that runs through all time 

But there's a river of grief that floods through our lives 

It starts when a heart is broken into 

By the thief of belief in anything that's true 

But there's a river of love that runs through all time 

There's a river of love that runs through all time 

But there's a river of tears that flows through our eyes 

We fight through the night for freedom as it fades 

Into a jail where we fail everytime we make a break 

But there's a river of love that runs through all time 

I had to run before I knew how to crawl 

The first step was hard 

But I have had trouble with them all 

But now the night grows darker 

And the day grows dim 

Cause I know I never will see you again 

And I almost made you happy 

There's a river of love that runs through all time 

But there's a river of fire that burns with no light 

The flame is the pain of dreams gone up in smoke 

From the lies we deny and breathe until we choke 

There's a river of love that runs through all time
