Drowned River Songtext

von Remaining Desire

I've lost what once made me laugh.
I thought I knew this feeling.
I thought I was
Where I was meant to be,
Yet you've split our passion apart.
The truth was too hard for me to face.
I felt like a drowned river.

No longer do I have
The pleasure of big expectations.
A foggy feeling lingers on;
Old photos are fading.
This will not change till I face
My bitter lies.

I opened up to life,
And suddenly it has gone.
It wasn't my day, it was yours.
(The days of) storm and thunder proved stronger.
They've extinguished the flame.
Your charm and your laughter
Remain with me in memory alone,
Leaving behind a drowned river.

No longer do I have
The scent of your skin,
The sound of your words,
Nor your feelings.
Everything remains out of reach.
I thought I was good enough.
I thought I could stay.
Everything was different
In my dream.

I wonder what you're doing now.
How I'd love to be by your side!
Every day brings thoughts of times gone by,
Of what I wanted, of what I loved,
And have no more.

No longer do I have
The scent of your skin,
The sound of your words,
Nor your feelings.
Everything remains out of reach.
I thought I was good enough.
I thought I could stay.
Everything was different
In my dream.

The castles in the air have crumbled,
The dream is over,
I now have to fight my way through the clouds
Till I see, once again, the light of the sun.

The things I have no more
Are the sound of your laughter, your voice,
And your thoughts.
Everything remains out of reach.
Everything was different
In my dream.
Yet I must wait.
I may meet you again,
- one to one ?
The flow of the river will tell.
