It’s three months to the river
That would carry me away
Two months to the dusty street
That I saw you on today.
It’s four Months to my lonely room
Where I will hide my face
And about half a mile to the downtown bar
That I ran from in disgrace.
Lord how long have I got to keep on running
Seven hours seven days or seven years?
All I know is since you’ve been gone
I feel like I’m drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.
Drowning in a river.
Feel like I’m drowning,
Drowning in a river.
In three more days, I’ll leave this town
And disappear without a trace.
A year from now, maybe settle down
Where no one knows my face.
I wish that I could hold you
One more time to ease the pain,
But my time’s run out and I got to go,
Got to run away again.
Still I catch myself thinking,
One day I’ll find my way back here.
You’ll save me from drowning,
Drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.
Drowning in a river.
Feels like I’m drowning,
Drowning in the river.
Lord, how long must this go on?
Drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.

Cover my eyes , Cover my ears
Tell me these words are a lie
It can’t be true
That I’m losing you
The sun cannot fall from the sky
Can you hear heaven cry
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel.
Stop every clock
Stars are in shock
The river will flow to the sea
I wont let you fly
I wont say goodbye
I wont let you slip away from me
Can you hear heaven cry
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel.
So hold on
Be strong
Every day hope will grow
I’m here, don’t you fear
Little one don’t let go oh oh oh
Don’t let go oh oh oh
Don’t let go oh oh oh
Cover my eyes
Cover my ears
Tell me these words are a lie

Now all I know is your love
I tear up when I think about you, boy
You’ve got me so, so emotional
But when I cry now, they’re all tears of joy
Look how you got me crying
Every every every every day
Every day and every night baby
I’m crying now, but it’s not like before
Baby these are tears of joy
They’ve been the same since you walked through my door
Baby these are tears of joy
I’m crying now, but it’s not like before
Baby these are tears of joy
