I Know Why The River Runs
Lee Ann Womack
Oooohhhhh..
When i reach to hold you...
I'll still be alone
When i hear the ringing...
of the telephone
I think it is you...
It will not be true
Chorus:
I know why the river runs to a place somewhere far away
I know why the sky is cryin' when there aren't any words to say
I could play the message...
that you left for me
I can hear your voice and...
i could still believe
That you will see me home...
but you will never come
Chorus:
I know why the river runs to a place somewhere far away
I know why the sky is crying when there aren't any words to say
There's a silence that I don't want to hear
There's a hole now where my heart used to be
They say that healing comes in time
but I don't know what that means
I'll lie here for so long, but you will never come...
Repeat chorus
