River

Verse 1-

Ever since you left me

I’ve never been the same

Get drunk on wine and whiskey

But nothing kills the pain

A thousand tears I’ve cried

And God catches every one

To say how bad I am

Wish I could swim

In my

Chorus-

River

If I could swim in this River

I would bridge the gap between us

And Heaven would not seem so far away

Verse 2-

To say I love you is not even close

You were my better half

The one I needed most

I leaned too hard I guess and you fell away

The cancer snagged you up

And left me here alone

Drowning in my tears

In this

Chorus-

River

If I could swim in this River

I would bridge the gap between us

And Heaven would not seem so far away

Verse 3-

We will meet again some day

This I know is true

Until then I will shed my tears

And all of them will be for you

Chorus-

River

If I could swim in this River

I would bridge the gap between us

And Heaven would not seem so far away

Ending-

And Heaven would not seem so far away

In my River
