The River Cried
Echoes of Lost Love: The River's Melancholy Tale
Lyrics
I took a walk today
I went for a walk today.
Through these gray dirty streets
Through these gloomy and unclean streets.
Thinkin' of you, missing you
Thinking about you, missing you,
And hoping that we'd meet
And hoping for a chance encounter.
I didn't tell my legs where to go
I didn't direct my legs, just walked to the dock.
I just walked up to the dock
Sitting on the edge, battling a shiver.
Sat on the edge, fighting a shiver
Expressing all the emotional pain inside.
Telling everything I hurt inside
Sharing my innermost feelings.
And the river cried, 'cause I lost your love
The river cried due to the loss of your love.
The river cried, ah
The river expressed sorrow.
The river cried, for my lonely soul, the river cried
The river cried for my lonely soul.
You were the only one that really knew me
You were the only one who truly understood me.
You were the only one in whom I confide
You were the sole confidant.
And hearing this the river cried
Hearing this, the river cried.
I say myself today
I observed myself today.
Through these gray dirty streets
Through these dreary and unclean streets.
Did you have to leave this town
Did you have to leave this town?
Or did you just have to leave me
Or did you just have to leave me?
All these questions in my mind
Many questions in my mind.
I didn't see the signs
I didn't notice the signs.
The river keeps flowin'
The river continues to flow.
I can't keep goin'
I can't keep going.
Waiting for you too return, my pride
Waiting for your return, my pride.
And the river cried, 'cause I lost your love
The river cried due to the loss of your love.
The river cried, ah
The river expressed sorrow.
The river cried, for my lonely soul, the river cried
The river cried for my lonely soul.
You were the only one that really knew me
You were the only one who truly understood me.
You were the only one in whom I confide
You were the sole confidant.
And hearing this the river cried
Hearing this, the river cried.
