By the River Lyrics

He sits by the river

And watches the river

And waits for the river

To come into shore

He prays to the river

To try to forgive her

But the water ignores him

He'll see her no more

He stands by the river

And pleads with the river

And bargains and bribes

For his love to return

He cries to the river,

"Oh won't you deliver

My love to my arms"

But the river is stern

And oh

We're all just flesh and bone

And oh

When the river decides you're the one

Breathe in deep

Breathe in deep

Breathe in deep

Breathe in deep

Nothing left to be done

He sits by the river

And watches the river

And waits for the river

To come into shore

He prays to the river

To try to forgive her

But the water ignores him

He'll see her no more

He stands by the river

And pleads with the river

And bargains and bribes

For his love to return

He cries to the river,

"Oh won't you deliver

My love to my arms"

But the river is stern

And oh

We're all just flesh and bone

And oh

When the river decides you're the one

Breathe in deep

Breathe in deep

Breathe in deep

Breathe in deep

Nothing left to be done

Nothing left to be done

Nothing left to be done

Nothing left to be done
