Blood Red River

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Took a friend I found across some blood red river Never did find my way home in time to forgive her [Pre-Chorus] Why must people always want what they can't have? Why must people always grab what they'd never grasp? [Chorus] How do we get so far? How do we move so fast away From the lilac-lillied lake I'm sure we used to stay Is it only a dream away? [Verse 2] Took a raft I found across some blood red river Never did find my home in time for my dinner [Pre-Chorus] Why must people always want what they never had? Why is it a crime to miss a part of you that's bled? [Chorus] How do we get so far? How do we move so fast away From the lilac-lillied lake I'm sure we used to stay Is it only a dream away? Only a dream away [Verse 3] Lost a friend I found down some blood red river Never did find my way home in time to forget her [Pre-Chorus] Why must people always want what they can't have? Why must people always take, but forget to ask? [Chorus] How do we get so far? How do we move so fast away From the lilac-lillied lake Where I'm told we used to play Is it only a dream away? Only a dream, only a dream away Away
