Blue Rodeo Mystic River Lyrics

Mystic River Lyrics

I can't believe it's true I finally got you here 

I've been waiting for
this moment for some years 

I’ve been torn down enough to know 

Everyone goes through this door 

Just before their lives explode 

Come in here with a heavy load



Walking down the road watching
the day begin 

Radio song is playing off in a distant wind 

But you
can feel it it's a gentle love 

Coming out soft from the windows above


Just when you have had enough 

Here comes the world you’ve been
dreaming of 



Oh my my the Mystic River 

She takes your heart


And you will forgive her 

Lay me down beside the water 

I
look across at the sons and daughters 



Sun comes up each day to
chase away the moon 

Even the stars at night they fade away too soon 

You can’t do much about the trouble life brings 

Cut all the lines so
the phones don’t ring 

But stay here once from spring to spring 

Watching the ice melt the mornings sing 



Oh my my the Mystic
River 

She takes your heart 

And you will forgive her 

Lay me
down beside the water 

I miss my sons I miss my daughter now 



There’s a tree that grows out in the burning sands 

Never a drop of
rain that nobody understands 

You can push me I don’t mind 

Leave
me out here and I’ll be fine 

Cause everyone’s gonna have their time 

Up or down honey you decide 



Oh my my the Mystic River 

She
takes your heart 

And you will forgive her 

Lay me down beside the
water 

I miss my sons I miss my daughter now
