The River Man - Leal

作词：M Tschanz

作曲：Carlos Leal

Why are you waiting for me

I'll never come back

I lost my reason

Lost my way

And I lost you again

So why are you waiting

Why are you waiting for me

Lost in the crowd

You're like a thousand year old tree

From all your cries and all your tears

Nothing will grow but fear

And while you're waiting

This city doesn't sleep

The kids are still laughing

And the rain washes the dirty street

I went to the river man

The river man

Your world was not a place

Where I could stay

A bird I couldn't hold in my hand

I went to the river man

The river man

Your world was not a place

Where I could stay

A bird I couldn't hold in my hand

While I've been waiting for you

My nights turned into infinity

Out there in the crowded city

I get eaten like a fruit fallen from the tree

Yeah I've been waiting for you 'cause what

I remember of you

Is that fire that kept us so warm

I won't let it die

No I won't let it die

I will be the one to bring

Back that fire in your eye

I went to the river man

He said that my world is where

You should stay

A place where you could

Rest inside my hand
