A River For Him Lyrics - Emmylou Harris

(Emmylou Harris) 

 

I crossed on the river 

There'll be no returning 

I crossed all the bridges 

I watched them all burning. 

 

And now I'm a stranger 

To a strange land I'm driven 

Where all is forgotten 

And nothing's forgiven.

But I cried a river, a river for him 

That's deeper and wider than I'll ever swim 

The heart it will harden, the sorrow will dim 

But I cried a river, a river for him. 

 

I think of him now on the road I am taking 

And wonder how long his heart will be breaking 

But he'll never hear when the teardrops are falling 

Or the sound of my voice and the name I'm calling. 

 

But I cried a river, a river for him 

That's deeper and wider than I'll ever swim 

The heart it will harden, the sorrow will dim 

But I cried a river, a river for him. 

 

--- Instrumental --- 

 

So weep for the sons and the dear darling daughters 

For the passing of time and the parting of waters 

For all who have passed through this world long before me 

To a far distant shore where no one waits for me.

But I cried a river, a river for him 

That's deeper and wider than I'll ever swim 

The heart it will harden, the sorrow will dim 

But I cried a river, a river for him...
