She used to be a girl, that you'll never leave
I don't pray for forgiveness her eyes make you believe
poisoned deep inside by jealousy no more memories will haunt me
What a fool am I - I light a candle the gates of eden were closed
the magic has gone from her smile no future was in her eyes
I had enough of bad news
In the midnight hour, I will start all over now
no more hate - no more shadows of the past
a wall of silence surrounded every dream
and the fear of lost emotion turn a whisper to a scream
And the river runs dry and we just take life for granted
till the day that we'll die till the river runs dry
and I don't forget the moment the last look in your eyes the river runs dry
I still live here, she's till around but I knew it before
when she walked out the door but I never saw through
Through the river of tears just throw me down a sign from heaven
And the river runs dry and we just take life for granted
