Sometimes A River

I was cleaning the ash from the fire

and putting the party away

helping out all of my lost friends

to see the light of day

I was feeling the wind through the windows

Sometimes it crashed through the wall

seems like it comes out of nowhere

theres no warning at all

sometimes a river

sometimes a river

runs dry

sometimes a river

sometimes a river

runs high

I was making my way through a movie

finding it hard to decide

sometimes it hits without warning

and turns me over inside

making a stab in the darkness

wearing a hole in the floor

suddenly everything changes

your not the same as before

you danced in my dream in a white dress

i watched from the top of the stairs

i woke up looking to find you

but you were not there

17 hours of driving

but thats not a surprise

the worlds all heavy with traffic

they never were good at goodbyes

no we never were good at goodbyes
