River to River Lyrics

You'd better cover your face tonight
Someone might take it away
I've been watching with second sight
And I don't like what I see;
There's a shadow over me -

River to river I call your name
Waiting for the water to rise
Anything forgotten is all the same
To a lover who lies
To a lover who lies

Now I've got an answer to what you need
But I'll never give it away
For each desire that isn't freed
One thing still remains:
Your world is wrapped in chains

River to river I call your name
Waiting for the water to rise
Anything forgotten is all the same
To a lover who lies
To a lover who lies

Running lonely here
It's cold and lonely here
I shiver in the night...

I'd better cover my heart tonight
Someone might take it away
I've been watching you dress in white
For someone else's touch
And I don't need you that much.

River to river I call your name
Waiting for the water to rise
Anything forgotten is all the same
To a lover who lies
To a lover who lies
