Parkway Drive - The River lyrics

Follow your heart to the water
Fill your pockets with stone
Throw your arms around me never let me go!

You were the first, you wouldn't be the last
What the river took, we could never replace
And as the pain set in
So did the realization
You were never coming home
For nights we lay awake
Wishing for answers, hoping against all hope
And if love could change the course of fate
These nights, we move mountains
But as the news filtered down the line
The impact shook us, shook us to the core
Loss struck like a dagger in our
Aching hearts

So follow your heart to the water
Fill your pockets with stone
Throw your arms around me never let me go!

It's not the years in your life
It's not the years in your life
It's not the years in your life
It's the life in your years!

Old soul, so it's said
The day we lost is the day I found regret
Not in the waters that embraced you
But in the wake your absence left
Sink into me! Sink into me!

Hold out your hands, sink into me
Hold out your hands, I'll take you away
Hold out your hands, sink into me
Hold out your hands, I'll take you away
Hold out your hands, sink into me!
Hold out your hands, I'll take you away!
Hold out your hands, sink into me!
Hold out your hands, I'll take you away!
Hold out your hands
Surrender the weight of this world!

Follow your heart to the water
Fill your pockets with stone
Throw your arms around me!

Follow your heart to the water
Fill your pockets with stone
Throw your arms around me never let me go
