Along the River Songtext
von Swindled

Along the river
We′re all just the same
Our broken lives
Are our claim to fame
And you know
Oh, you know
Oh, you know

Along the river
There's no time for shame
As you told me
When the angels came
While you grow
Oh, you grow
Oh, you grow


Angels come in your sleep
And take you away
Sometimes they′ll drop you
And make you stay
You travel down the river
One more time
For another lifetime you wait

Along the river
There's a reason for you
Oh father time
Will you choose me too
'Cause you know
Oh, you know
Oh, you know

Give me some more hours in this life
I trespassed for you
Now the sand is running out of the hourglass soon
Is it this life or the next one
That′s meant to be cruel
Taken by the river one last time
Is the truth


Angels come in your sleep
And take you away
Sometimes they′ll drop you
And make you stay
You travel down the river
One more time
For another lifetime you wait

Angels come in your sleep
And take you away
Sometimes they'll drop you
And make you stay
You travel down the river
One more time
For another lifetime you wait
