River Songtext
von The Devil Said Jump

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
