lyrics

Sad Song: - Alysia Manceau

wake me in the morning when the dawn turns to rust
love me in the evening when the day turns to dust
oh love is a river running to you from my heart
and long is the river that'll tear us apart

i take the ribbon from my hair and I hand it to you
we can run through these woods, run from the truth
and there's lust in the fire that burns by our bed
but the night stole the words that I wished,
i wished you'd said.

oooh

hearts flutter like wings and there's rain in my hair
like the lullaby you sing when i'm gone from there
and there's tears in my eyes as i turn to you
standing broken and torn where the river
the river runs through the river runs through oh
the river runs through
