Same River Twice Songtext
von Joseph Huber

Well hey there honey, I ain′t got no money
And every time I earn a dollar I lose it to you
And that's no good for you, no that′s no good for anyone
But it's been a while and by your smile I'm not the only one

To say, baby I don′t know what was on my mind
What do you say that you and I stand
In the same river for the second time?
′Cause it's right today, only you and I
Making the waves and fighting the tide
Standing in the same river for the second time

Well the days get hotter and my wounds they holler
Like simple people hoping for a sign
But it′s too damn blind, well I've been blind to see
I′d tear out my two eyes to make you believe


When I say, baby I don't know what was on my mind
What do you say that you and I stand
In the same river for the second time?
′Cause it's right today, only you and I
Making the waves and fighting the tide
Standing in the same river for the second time

Well my roots run shallow and my branches hollow
And all the empty seeds I have sown
Since you stopped coming home

Now there's bells a-ringing and my blood they′re singing
Sure as spring will bring the things we thought had died
The things we ain′t yet tried, like standing in the same river twice
'Cause it′s getting wider while we wait around for it all to dry

And I say, baby I don't know what was on my mind
What do you say that you and I stand
In the same river for the second time?
′Cause it's right today, only you and I
Making the waves and fighting the tide
Standing in the same river for the second time
Standing in the same river for the second time
