Lyrics Matthew Perryman Jones

Matthew Perryman Jones

Stones from the Riverbed

Silently tracing the cracks

Through the chaos

Grieving what cannot come back

What's gone away

Feeling the weight

Of sorrow's night

You can't find your way through the black

So you pray for light

Everyone's trying to find

Ways to fix it

You know in your heart what you need

To work it out

Looking away to a violent sky

There's a deep dark river

Rising on the inside

And you stand in the water

With your arms crossed

Groaning Hallelujah

And the trees bow to the east

As the sun waits under the sea

Fall into that mystery

Or it will pull you under

Fall into the mystery

Or it will pull you under

It's ok to say goodbye

It's ok to say goodbye

It's ok...

It's ok to say goodbye

The stones in the city walls

Were pulled from the river bed
