Lyrics

Now morning falls, Chet Baker gray
and it’s already afternoon
with grace and hallelujah on my fingertips
can it really be that I feel you?

She dreamt of your funeral and you were there,
saying it will all be over soon
I entered the chapel, dressed in denial
and these lips that never say goodbye

oh I want you to love me, I want you to love me
but there’s not one thing I can do
oh I want you to love me, I want you to love me
but there’s not one thing I can do

So I’ll go down that river, bring my two-way fare
I’ll go down that river, meet the dreamers there
and I won’t look back and I won’t sit down
I’ll let you sleep in the dark
I’ll trust you’re there put your words behind me
I’ll sing you home to the light you can’t see
I’ll trust you’re there count your steps behind please

Give me a try, give me something
give me a try, give me some way
to win you, to love you, to save you

I dreamt I was running through shining pebbled streams
yes there was help along the way
and I can’t help feeling that I was getting somewhere
perhaps that was just to keep me going, going, going

oh I want you to love me, I want you to love me
but there’s not one thing I can do
and I’ll go down that river------

to win you, to love you, to save you, to lose you
