I remember that I found you
|
Just waiting in the dark
|
Took me to the river where we always fell apart
|
And we lay amongst the rocks
|
Naked in the sand
|
Waiting for the moment that we hoped would never end
|
And I came to you for comfort
|
But I never stopped the pain
|
I remember we were smiling
|
As our bodies tore away
|
|
So take me to the river
|
I can almost feel it
|
The water's washing over me
|
And I don't even mind
|
And I know that you're screaming
|
I can barely hear it
|
The water's washing over me
|
And I don't even mind
|
I don't even mind
|
I don't even mind
|
I don't even mind
|
|
Woke up in the morning
|
As the lights began to freeze
|
Tried to stop the current changing of the leaves
|
Now it's frozen in the spotlight
|
Burns like the sun
|
Waiting for the moment that I knew would never come
|
So I held you close for comfort
|
But I couldn't stop the pain
|
Knew that we were dying
|
As our bodies tore away
|
|
So take me to the river
|
I can almost feel it
|
The water's washing over me
|
And I don't even mind
|
And I know that you're screaming
|
I can barely hear it
|
The water's washing over me
|
And I don't even mind
|
I don't even mind
|
|
There, by the shore, I am raw
|
I can almost taste it
|
Hope, like a drug, in the blood
|
I can feel it coming
|
Walk, till we fall, till we crawl
|
I can almost taste it
|
There in the blood
|
Like a drug
|
I can hear it coming
|
|
So take me to the river
|
I can almost feel it
|
The water's washing over me
|
And I don't even mind
|
And I know that you're screaming
|
I can barely hear it
|
The water's washing over me
|
And I don't even mind
|
[x2]
|
I don't even mind
|
I wash away
|
I wash away
|
