Текст песни
[gentle fingerpicking guitar intro]
[Verse]
The river remembers where I’ve been
It whispers my name like a mournful hymn
Its hands are cold
But they cradle me still
I follow its bends
Against my will
[Prechorus]
Each ripple carries a piece of the past
It flows too slow
But it moves too fast
[Chorus]
And the river runs
It don’t ask why
It carries the truth
It don’t need to lie
Oh
The river knows
It don’t forget
It holds my soul where the sun has set
[Verse 2]
There’s a cedar stump by the old mill’s gate
Its roots hold secrets
Its bark knows fate
I carved a name there
Years gone by
Now the letters bleed
Where the memories lie
[Prechorus]
The current pulls
It won’t let go
It hums the songs I used to know
[Verse]
