Take me by the hand
Whisper what you know
I’m just learning to stand
To make it on my own
Love me when you can
But know when to let go
I’m water over sand
The moon she pulls me home
And I’ll always find my way home to you
I am a river
Always searching for the sea
You can’t hold water
But you can let it wash you clean
I cannot promise that I’ll always be
Who You need me to be
But I know I’ll try to do right
And I’ll love you like water
When you hold me tight
I’m slipping through your hands
When you let me go
I’m coming back again
Ripples in our minds
Around rocks from ancient times
It’s best to let it flow
Loving what you find
And I’ll always find my way home to you
I am a river
Always searching for the sea
You can’t hold water
But you can let it wash you clean
I cannot promise that I’ll always be
Who You need me to be
But I know in time, we’ll be alright
If you love me like water
I am a river
Always searching for the sea
You can’t hold water
But you can let it wash you clean
I cannot promise that I’ll always be
Who You need me to be
But I know I’ll try to do right
And I’ll love you like water

They say time
Time will fix
But no amount of time’s
Ever gonna heal this
'Cause babe I loved you
As much as I could
Only problem is it did no good
Maybe there’s nothing I can do
To rescue you
Baby I’m tying to get through
But it’s no use
Maybe I’m drowning as I try
So maybe it’s time to say goodbye
Bless my heart
You know I believed
Maybe if I shine brighter
Than the lights of the party
You would see
And come back home
But I’m still sitting here all alone
Maybe there’s nothing I can do
To rescue you
Baby I’m tying to get through
But it’s no use
Maybe I’m drowning as I try
So maybe it’s time to say goodbye
'Cause you can’t see me
And I can’t touch you
Shattered mirrors
Will we bust through
Cause I want more
Than just a ghost
I need something
I can hold
Someone who can hold me
So come on, baby, let me fly free
If there’s nothing I can do
To rescue you
God knows that I’ve been trying
And it ain’t no use
Maybe I’m tired of trying to try
maybe it’s time to say goodbye

I’m guessing that it’s over
But now we know
Sometimes it takes a while
For the truth to show
There’s no doubt I loved you
Sometimes love grows
Sometimes the bitter soil
Destroys the seeds we sow
Think I’m gonna drive all night
Try to get my head on right
I just need a little more time
To let it go
Always thinking you would be the one
Always giving you my place under the sun
I forgot what it’s like to run
While I carried you
Thought if I could finally make you see
How much you really meant to me
Maybe that would set me free
But it’s not true
I lost myself in loving you
Did you ever see me
I don’t know
Did the river ever see the ground
That held its course
Babe, you’re always running
Leaving me behind
Forever chasing ghosts
Tears in my eyes
Think I’m gonna Drive all night
So Tired of seeing your taillights
And I think it’s high past time
We let it go
Always thinking you would be the one
Always giving you my place under the sun
I forgot what it’s like to run
While I carried you
Thought if I could finally make you see
How much you really meant to me
Maybe that would set me free
But it’s not true
I lost myself in loving you
