Marc Almond - The River Lyrics
And he dances every nightFramed in candlesAnd white white lightAll is revealedWhen all is too brightYoure such a pleasureA wonderful painMakes me never wantTo love againBut sorrow always comesTo those with fickle fameAnd the tears are gonna comeThe tears are gonna comeWe are consumed by corruptionOld before our timeHurt by others hungerScarred by love as greed (how I need)How cruel the birthday of 17Youth behind youThe long years aheadShowing you what you might have beenInstead of drifting, drifting, driftingAnd the tears are gonna comeThe tears are gonna comeFoundations crumbleWalls subsideWe all break apartWhen theres heartache insideHold back those yearsThose tearsWith a futile pride (were gonna come clean)Beware of loveAnd of dark-eyed menTheyre sweet and theyre tenderBut they have no heartsJust long smashedCruel shards of broken glassAnd the tears are gonna comeThe tears are gonna comeAnd all those songsThat made me cryKeep flooding backAnd years of new discovery and youDisturbing my dreamsNow were flowing down that riverHeading for the deltaI dont know which way to flowBut my hearts a forest fireAnd yours a field of snowI dont know which way to flowDont know which wayDont know which wayTo flow
