The River Rise Songtext
von Mark Lanegan Band

Oh, the river rise
And it′s a mile high
Is this worth tryin'
Is this worth tryin′
'Cause I could fall
Like a tear
Well, there's nothing else I can do

When I′m not alone
Nothing′s beside me
What one eye sees
The other's blind in
Well, I could fall
As if I was young
With a lifetime to think of you


Fire one for losing
And two for hiding
Keep river moving
Movin′ right by me
I could fall
And there's nothin′ else I can do

Ah, the river rise
And it's a mile high
Has this world turned
Has this world tried
′Cause I could fall
Like a tear
Well, there's nothin' else I can do

Up on the river rise
She′s a mile high
