River
Logically she knew
That things always change
Waves never stop crashing
In Northwestern rains
Some things aren't worth holding onto
As time wears you down
Shook out the flowers
The petals all fall
Magnolia perfect
Quickly went dull
Wasn't someone I knew
In the silence or the long drive on
Stood by myself at the river
Wishing you were anybody else
I was resentments shelter
As the frozen rain came down
Grin and bear it
I loved that walk alone
By the time I was back in Chicago
I didn't know you
Don't own a clock
With the hands to hear tick
I know time is passing
You remind me of it
Everything you see, everything you want
Is written in a script I don't understand
Our paths they flowed sisters
They caught and they pulled
Back on the banks
I split from you
Branching out on my ownsome
I went East as your mouth met the sea
Stood by myself at the river
Wishing you were anybody else
I was resentments shelter
As the frozen rain came down
Grin and bear it
I loved that walk alone
By the time I was back in Chicago
I didn't know you
I didn't know you
And it's sad to think
This is how the lights go down
But honestly
I'm shocked we've withstood it 'til now
Stood by myself at the river
Wishing you were anybody else
I was resentments shelter
As the frozen rain came down
Grin and bear it
I loved that walk alone
By the time I was back in Chicago
I didn't know you
I didn't know you
That things always change
Waves never stop crashing
In Northwestern rains
Some things aren't worth holding onto
As time wears you down
Shook out the flowers
The petals all fall
Magnolia perfect
Quickly went dull
Wasn't someone I knew
In the silence or the long drive on
Stood by myself at the river
Wishing you were anybody else
I was resentments shelter
As the frozen rain came down
Grin and bear it
I loved that walk alone
By the time I was back in Chicago
I didn't know you
Don't own a clock
With the hands to hear tick
I know time is passing
You remind me of it
Everything you see, everything you want
Is written in a script I don't understand
Our paths they flowed sisters
They caught and they pulled
Back on the banks
I split from you
Branching out on my ownsome
I went East as your mouth met the sea
Stood by myself at the river
Wishing you were anybody else
I was resentments shelter
As the frozen rain came down
Grin and bear it
I loved that walk alone
By the time I was back in Chicago
I didn't know you
I didn't know you
And it's sad to think
This is how the lights go down
But honestly
I'm shocked we've withstood it 'til now
Stood by myself at the river
Wishing you were anybody else
I was resentments shelter
As the frozen rain came down
Grin and bear it
I loved that walk alone
By the time I was back in Chicago
I didn't know you
I didn't know you
