Down The River Lyrics - The Crane Wives

I've been wishing that you'd prove me wrong, 

That you'd come clean and rue the damage the done, 

Restore my faith in you 

But you've got no reason to 

'Cause ain't it easier to just move on? 

One door closing means another one 

Opens unto 

Some unsuspecting fool 

Sure, you can forget about all the things you've done. 

But what about the rest of us? 

What about the rest of us? 

High-tail it when it gets to be too much 

But what about the rest of us? 

What about the rest of us? 

You can sell us down the river, 

Sell us down the river 

You were never the one 

To suffer 

I've been hearing that you're leaving town. 

The dust never settles when you're around. 

Too many people with 

Your name on top of their lists 

Now, tell me, when you start again, 

Where will you house your skeletons? 

Or will they stay behind, 

Your settlement in kind? 

Sure, you can forget about all the things you've done. 

But what about the rest of us? 

What about the rest of us? 

High-tail it when it gets to be too much 

But what about the rest of us? 

What about the rest of us? 

You can sell us down the river, 

Sell us down the river 

You were never the one 

To suffer 

Down the river 

Down the river 

Down the river 

Down the river
