Lyrics

[Verse 1] And Lord the fingers all point at me What is it that they want to see I try to find my way below But the River's coming down on me And Lord can't you just let me go Even if they're all in woe Or tell them that I can't be found Cause the River's coming down on me [Verse 2] And no it didn't go the way they said In fact it wasn't even great And with her blood running from my palms I let the River bring her home And Lord can't you find a way to see I really just set her free And now she's waiting down below Hear the River's coming down on me [Chorus] The voices are fading out The silence in her eyes Oh in trembling waters The River's Lullaby Fighting Fighting For her life [Verse 3] And Lord I lit a match and let it be Like the flames would just set me free And now I'm standing in fire While the roof is coming down on me And Lord I didn't know they were there The flame wasn't meant to share But now we're standing in the pyre While all Hell is coming down on me [Chorus] The voices are fading out The silence in her eyes Oh in trembling waters The River's Lullaby Fighting Fighting For her life [Verse 5] The fists Are Tied They can See The Fire Once again Water Rise There is No More Lies This is the end Hang Them High It's the Death And I Once Again Water Rise There is No More Lies [Verse 6] Game from the Shadows Game in the Night I'm gonna have What is mine Your final Tears Will fill your Eyes Cause this is Goodbye [Verse 7] Game from the Shadows Game in the Night I'm gonna have What is mine A grim wide Smile It's you and I And yes This is Goodbye So come on over now So come on over now Oh hear the River cry So come on over now Oh hear the Lullaby Oh hear the River cry Oh hear the Lullaby
