Paroles de The river

Well, the river came to me, and it washed us all away.
Someone is chasing me and noted where i used to stay.
And i feel as i've been here many times before.
As i kneel and i pick up the pieces on the floor.

And you ask me in a voice, that is quiet, that is strong:
"tell me of a place where the living don't belong."
I remember falling to the other side.
I remember leaving my body behind.

But the river pulled me away,
Before i got a chance to say what i say.
And under the jacket i did lay.
And the christmas lights, they come from nowhere.

I had visions often of rivers,
No, i didn't know their names.

I had visions, notwithstanding in the heart of it all.
And you ask me to tell you:
"oh, what people might we become?"
Tell me of the dying we have done.

But the river pulled me away,
Before i got a chance to say what i say.
And under the jacket i did lay.
And the christmas lights, they came from nowhere.

Oh, and under the river i stay.
I won't get the chance to say what i say.
Under the jacket, i will lay.
And the christmas lights, they come from nowhere.
And the christmas lights, they come from nowhere.
And the christmas lights, they come from nowhere.
