Riverwide
A Love Lost in the Riverwide Echoes
Lyrics
I was a lonely little child
I experienced loneliness as a child
On the banks of a river wide
By the banks of a wide river
She was most beautiful and blue
Describing the river as beautiful and blue
And had rest on the other side
The river provided a sense of rest on the other side
Unfurling foam
Depicting the river's unfurling foam
Far from every stone
Describing a location far from any stones
And the trees began to sway
The trees started to sway, possibly indicating a change in the environment
Lost my life in a roaring river wide
Expressing a sacrifice of life in a wide and roaring river for the sake of being with someone
Just to be with you that day
Highlighting the importance of being together on that specific day
No bridge, no boat
Emphasizing the absence of a bridge or boat
No way to stay afloat
Stating the lack of a means to stay afloat in the river
As I began to cross
Beginning the journey across the river despite the challenges
I was caught and kept in a current that could crush
Getting caught in a powerful current that has the potential to crush
And within the waves was lost
Being lost within the waves
As my arms feigned and the water overcame
Struggling as the water overcomes the attempt to cross
The waves began to sing
Describing the waves singing, possibly reflecting the river's power and influence
And in my ears, I swear to you my dear
Claiming to hear a lovely silver ring in the ears amid the overwhelming situation
Was a lovely silver ring
Symbolizing a precious moment or connection within the chaos
I was a lonely little child
Reiterating the experience of loneliness as a child
In love with a silvery sound
Falling in love with a silvery sound, suggesting a deep emotional connection
Would you shed a tear for me my dear
Asking for empathy through the request to shed a tear for the speaker's drowning
For on that day I drowned
Expressing the final outcome of drowning on that particular day
