I Know Why The River Runs Lyrics

When I reach to hold you, I'll still be alone

 When I heard the ringin of the telephone

 I'll think it is you                         

 It will not be true                         

 

 I know why the river runs                         

 To a place somewhere far away                         

 I know why the sky is cryin                         

 When there aren't any words to say                         

 

 I could play the message that you left for me

 I can hear your voice and I could still believe

 That you will send me home                         

 But you will never come                         

 

 I know why the river runs                         

 To a place somewhere far away                         

 I know why the sky is cryin                         

 When there aren't any words to say  

 

 There's a silence that I don't want to keep

 There's a hole now where my heart used to be

 

 I lie here for so long

 But you will never come

 

 I know why the river runs                         

 To a place somewhere far away                         

 I know why the sky is cryin                         

 When there aren't any words to say  

 

 I know why the river runs                         

 To a place somewhere far away                         

 I know why the sky is cryin                         

 When there aren't any words to say
