lyrics

Storms coming
So much feeling in the wind
Something’s blowing through again
Like my so-long west bound friend
Lamentations
For what could and couldn’t be
I hear you calling from the deep
Brace myself for stormy seas

Pierce me with your smile
Sail away, blink back those years
Cast away the line cleave your hand from mine
Washed away on This River of My Tears

Minds racing
Don’t truly know the reason why
But I can’t recall your name
Gotta hang my head and cry
Incantations
Just can’t seem to get them right
Misty sparkling fills my eyes
Got no breath to say goodbye

Pierce me with your smile
Sail away, blink back those years
Cast away the line cleave your hand from mine
Washed away on This River of My Tears

There’s no sense in anything
There’s no way to make it slow
Waves are crashing over me
And I know . . .yes I know . . . you gotta go . . .

Pierce me with your smile
Sail away, blink back those years
Cast away the line cleave your hand from mine
Washed away on This River . . . .

Cleave you hand from mine this one last time
Washed away . . . . . on This River
Washed away . . . . . on This River . . . . . of My Tears
