I still remember, falling to the floor and Now I, often wonder how I ever dared to let you come Even closer, closer than the air around me Underneath my skin
And I remember sitting down beside the river The water moving, heaving like a living breathing thing Moving closer, I was strangely drawn and then I Heard you call my name
And now I’m drowning, drowning in your life Somehow I’m living, I’m living just to die Just like the river, rolls into the sea So I surrender to the sweetest love, rolling over me
It’s funny how the memory can fade, but then I’m Still reminded, when I smell the rain and I feel Moved to kneel and live it all again And I try to kiss the river
And now I’m dying, just to live again And I am longing, waiting ‘til the rain Becomes a river, swelling like a flood So I can dive into the sweetest love… Until I’m drowning, drowning in your life Until I’m living, I’m living just to die Just like the river, rolls into the sea So I surrender to the sweetest love, rolling over me
