  • written by Emmylou Harris
  • copyright 1987 Sorghum Music (ASCAP)
  • I crossed on the river
  • There'll be no returning
  • I crossed all the bridges
  • I watched them all burning
  • And now I'm a stranger
  • To a strange land I'm driven
  • Where all is forgotten
  • And nothing's forgiven
  • But I cried a river
  • A river for him
  • That's deeper and wider
  • Than I'll ever swim
  • The heart it will harden
  • The sorrow will dim
  • But I cried a river
  • A river for him
  • I think of him now
  • On the road I am taking
  • And wonder how long
  • His heart will be breaking
  • But he'll never hear when
  • The teardrops are falling
  • Or the sound of my voice
  • Or the name I am calling
  • But I cried a river
  • A river for him
  • That's deeper and wider
  • Than I'll ever swim
  • The heart it will harden
  • The sorrow will dim
  • But I cried a river
  • A river for him
  • So weep for the sons
  • And the dear darling daughters
  • For the passing of time
  • And the parting of waters
  • For all who have passed through
  • This world long before me
  • To a far distant shore line
  • Where no one waits for me
  • But I cried a river
  • A river for him
  • That's deeper and wider
  • Than I'll ever swim
  • The heart it will harden
  • The sorrow will dim
  • But I cried a river
  • A river for him
