Verve Pipe - The River Lyrics
She fell in love with a lover boyIn the old days I would walk aloneAny other day not disturbingWhile the others roamedAnd I listened to her songBut would walk on the other sideWed be lonely, blue and lonelyThen she fell in love with another oneI was older now, and followed a pathShe had learned to be cool, to be caringAnd I thought I should sayIts too much just to beBut not enough for the life of meTo be lonely, blue and lonelyThats when the river ran dryThats when the river was all but a spillThats when the river ran dryEvery soul on the shoreWithout sail, without willShe said her saviour was soon to comeFrom a long way, to bring back the girl he once knewTo be true and all lovingIn the very best waysAnd I listened to her songBut would walk on the other sideWed be lonely, blue and lonelyThats when the river ran dryThats when the river was all but a spillThats when the river ran dryEvery soul on the shoreWithout sail, without willIf time were a secondIf life were a moment that once stood stillId leave it untattered, untouched, untilBut its too much just to beBut not enough for the life of meTo be lonely, blue and lonelyShe fell in love with a lover boyIn the old days, I would walk aloneAny other day not disturbingAnd I listened to her songBut would walk on the other sideWed be lonely, blue and lonelyThats when the river ran dryThats when the river was all but a spillThats when the river ran dryEvery soul on the shoreWithout sail, without willAnd I knew it before, and I do know it still
