The River Lyrics - Kt Tunstall

I'm holding on 

To something I don't want 

To hold on to 

I'm reaching out 

For something I can't touch 

Although I know I want to 

Taking in the scenery 

You're the ghost in my machinery 

When I was good as gold 

I was good as gold 

Closing off the avenues 

To places that I never knew 

And know I'll never know 

Now I'll never go

I listen 

And I hear you speak 

Am I missing something? 

I want to jump into the river 

Feel it on my skin 

But the river is rocks 

And I'm already lost 

And I know where I've been 

Oh I know where I've been 

I feel I'm caught 

In a beautiful 

Dream 

And I'm cold 

And my heart has told me 

It's a dark seam 

Photos 

Running through the middle of 

A life that's full of real love 

And everything is mine 

Everything is mine 

I listen 

And I hear you speak 

Am I missing something? 

I want to jump into the river 

And feel it on my skin 

But the river is rocks 

And I'm already lost 

And I know where I've been 

Oh 

I listen 

And I hear you speak 

Am I missing something? 

I want to jump into the river 

And feel it on my skin 

But the river is rocks 

And I'm already lost 

And I know where I've been 

Oh I know where I've been 

Yes I know where I've been
