From the lies we deny and breathe until we choke
I had to run before I knew how to crawl
By the thief of belief in anything that's true
But now the night grows darker and the day grows dim
There's a river of love that runs through all time
The first step was hard but I have had trouble with them all
But there's a river of love that runs through all time
There's a river of tears that flows through our eyes
We fight through the night for freedom as it fades
The flame is the pain of dreams gone up in smoke
But there's a river of love that runs through all time
There's a river of love that runs through all time
It starts when a heart is broken into
'Cause I know I never will see you again and I almost made you happy
There's a river of fire that burns with no light
Into a jail where we fail every time we make a break
