When I reach to hold you, I'll still be alone When I heard the ringin' of the telephone I'll think it is you It will not be true I know why the river runs To a place somewhere far away I know why the sky is cryin When there aren't any words to say I could play the message that you left for me I can hear your voice and I could still believe That you will send me home But you will never come I know why the river runs To a place somewhere far away I know why the sky is cryin When there aren't any words to say There's a silence that I don't want to keep There's a hole now where my heart used to be I lie here for so long But you will never come I know why the river runs To a place somewhere far away I know why the sky is cryin When there aren't any words to say I know why the river runs To a place somewhere far away I know why the sky is cryin When there aren't any words to say
