Rivers

There's wood chip on the walls
There's wood on the stove
You would if you could but you cannot I know
But I'm still yours alone

We'd lie on our backs
We'd lie on your floor
But we lied so much we don't talk any more
But I'm still yours alone
You said you were tired I said I feel the same
I put on my shoes and I got on the train

To see sunlight fade and the shadows grow long
To see rivers go winding blindly back to the storm
And the rickety tracks they're taking me back to where I used to belong

There's a weight on our shoulders
A weight to your tone
You wait on tables I wait by the phone
And I'm still yours alone

You blew out the candles when we fell apart
I'm not childish just scared of the dark

I see sunlight fade and the shadows grow long
To see rivers go winding blindly back to the storm
And the rickety tracks they are taking me back to where I used to belong
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I feel sunlight fade and the shadows grow long
I see rivers go winding blindly back to the storm
And the rickety tracks taking me back to where I used to belong
