Lyrics

River of Tears

Did you think that this world would always be kind
Did you think that your friends would stay true
When you stand all alone and everything's gone
And there's nothin, no nothin you can do
When you call out my name, this much I know
The waves may crash and the winds might blow

Chorus:
Here's a hand to pull you up
A voice to calm your fears
I'm a ship you can sail
on this river of tears

Did you think I could leave when you needed me most
That your pain was too deep to share
There's so much about me that you haven't seen
or you'd have known --I was always right there
It's deeper than words could ever explain
How a heart can survive in a world filled with pain

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:
Did you think it would all rush out with the tide
like the secrets you wrote in the sand
Some things you can't hide
They get buried inside
My love, didn't you think I'd understand

Repeat Chorus.

I'm a ship you can sail, I'm a ship you can sail
A ship you can sail on this river of tears.
