The River Lyrics - Love Like Blood

You will never can imagine 

This unvoiced desperation 

It's not written on my face 

Leaving behind resignation 

[pre-chorus] 

Reaching out for the first reach 

With a strangled smile I'd let you go 

Leaving behind emptiness 

It hurts more than you'll ever know 

[chorus] 

And the river, and the river flows 

Strong the wild 

And the fever, and the fever grows 

Fiery by passion 

In the dark and torrid ocean 

All the hearts are lying there 

Lost for love, waiting for rebirth 

I get sick, I feel it rising there 

[repeat pre-chorus / chorus / solo / chorus] 

Torrential like a river 

Consuming like a fever 

And the current, and the current, and the current flows
