Marc Almond - The River lyrics

[Marc Almond - The River lyrics]

And he dances every night framed in candles
And white white light all is revealed
When all is too bright
You're such a pleasure a wonderful pain
Makes me never want to love again
But sorrow always comes
To those with fickle fame
And the tears are gonna come
The tears are gonna come

We are consumed by corruption
Old before our time hurt by others' hunger
Scarred by love as greed (how I need)
How cruel the birthday of 17
Youth behind you the long years ahead
Showing you what you might have been
Instead of drifting, drifting, drifting

And the tears are gonna come
The tears are gonna come



Foundations crumble walls subside
We all break apart
When there's heartache inside
Hold back those years those tears
With a futile pride (we're gonna come clean)
Beware of love and of dark-eyed men
They're sweet and they're tender
But they have no hearts just long smashed
Cruel shards of broken glass

And the tears are gonna come
The tears are gonna come

And all those songs that made me cry
Keep flooding back
And years of new discovery and you
Disturbing my dreams
Now we're flowing down that river
Heading for the delta
I don't know which way to flow
But my heart's a forest fire
And yours a field of snow

I don't know which way to flow
Don't know which way don't know which way
To flow
