Lyrics
Unearthly feeling in me
Can be the answer I fear
Silence can be so demanding
When I am too tired to sleep
(Chorus) When the river runs dry will you be by my side?
Hold me while I cry and caress my child?
Cuz I was meant to be here loving you now
In so deep will I be set free
Thinking too much life's not clear
I can be cold and demanding
When my dreams fill me too deep
(Chorus)
Healing begins with a choice
Knowing the mind controls the voice
Holding my memories for ransom
Will never free up my world
(Chorus - out)
