~~~ THE HOLY RIVER ~~~

~~~ THE HOLY RIVER ~~~



LOVERS


The Holy River


Let's go down 2 the holy river

If we drown then we'll be delivered


U can still see the picture

upon the wall

One eye staring at nothing at all

The other one trying 2 focus

through all your tears

U can try and try but

there's nothin' 2 hide

U can't run from yourself

and what's inside

U got 2 find the answers

2 the questions

that U most fear


So over and over U ask your soul

Why'd U come down 2 a world so cold?

And the voice inside says

2night the truth will be told


U surrounded yourself with

all the wrong faces

Spending your time in all

the wrong places

Puttin' your faith in things

that only make U cry

People say they love U

when they wanna help

But how can they when

U can't help yourself?

The more they say they love U,

the more U just wanna die

So here we go again,

the self analysis

Have another glass of Port

and uh.. forget this

The band's playin'

at the club 2night and

they're bound 2 groove


There U are, U think U're high

U can't ask yourself cuz U'd only lie

If U had a dollar 4 every time U tried


U can't call nobody cuz they'll tell

U straight up

Come and make love when U

really hate 'em

Relationships based on the physical

are over and done

They're over and done

They're over and done

U'd rather have fun

With only one, with only one

Only one... one (one)


And then it hit 'cha like a fist

on a wall

Who gave U life when there

was none at all?

Who gave the sun permission

2 rise up everyday?

Ooh, oh yes

Let me tell it (Go'n)

If U ask God 2 love U longer

Every breath U take will

make U stronger

Keepin' U happy (happy)

and proud 2 call His name

(Go'n and say it)

Jesus (Jesus)


And over and over U ask your soul

Why'd U come down 2 a world so cold?

And the voice inside said

2night the truth will be told

And this time I was listening, hear me


Let's go down 2 the holy river

If we drown then we'll be delivered

(Yes we will)

If we don't then we'll never

see the light (No)

If U die before U try

U'll have 2 come back and

face the light Oh yes

When U believe it,

U got a good reason 2 cry

(Oh my, my)


So I went on down 2 the holy river

I called my girl and told her

I had something 2 give her

I asked her 2 marry me

and she said yes, I cried

Oh, that night I drowned in

her tears and mine

And.. and instead of a glass

of sorrow and wine

Looking back y'all,

I don't miss nothing except the time

And when I see that picture

upon the wall

The one eye staring at nothing at all

My eyes trying 2 focus

but these are much different tears

Oh, yes they are

Let's go down 2 the holy river

Let's go down 2 the holy river
