River Of Tears Lyrics - Pilgrim - Eric Clapton

It's three miles to the river, 

That would carry me away, 

And two miles to the dusty street, 

That I saw you on Today, 

Its four miles to my lonely room, 

Where I will hide my face, 

And about a half a mile to the downtown bar, 

That I ran from in disgrace, 

Lord how long do I have to keep on running, 

Seven hours, Seven days or Seven years, 

All I know is since you've been gone, 

feels like I'm drowning in a river, 

Drowning in a river of tears, 

Drowning in a river, 

feels like I'm drowning, 

Drowning in a river,

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

In three more days I'll leave this town, 

and disappear without a trace, 

A year from now maybe settle down, 

Where no one knows my face, 

I wish that I could hold you, 

One more time to ease the pain, 

But my times run out and I got to go, 

Got to run away again, 

Still I catch myself thinking, 

One day I'll find my way back here, 

You'll save me from drowning, 

Drowning in a river, 

Drowning in a river of tears, 

Drowning in a river,

Feels like I'm drowning, 

Drowning in a river 

Oh how long must this go on, 

Drowning in a river, 

Drowning in a river of tears
