River of Tears
I cry this river of tears
Just for you to drift away
I stop the river
Thinking you may go no further
But instead you just drift away
Maybe if I paddle along
I'll run across you once again
Maybe if I swim in this river
I'll catch up to you one day
Forever trying to find you
If I can find you
Maybe you'll come back
We'll float away together
Separated no longer
But you're still far away on this river of tears
Maybe if I paddle along
I'll run across you once again
Maybe if I swim in this river
I'll catch up to you one day
Forever trying to find you
I finally come to the end of my river
Just to find you with someone else
You're drifting along with her
While I fall off the edge
Of this waterfall
Maybe if I had paddled more
I could have found you before
Maybe if I had swam a little more
I would have caught up to you before
I spent my life trying to find you
Now I cry a new river of tears
Just so I can drift away
