The River Lyrics - Wake Up And Say Goodbye - David Usher

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 waters washing over me and I dont even mind 

And I know that youre screaming I can barely hear it 

The waters washing over me and I dont even mind 

I dont 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 couldnt 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 waters washing over me and I dont even mind 

And I know that youre screaming I can barely hear it 

The waters washing over me and I dont even mind 

I dont 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
