Untitled

Cold rain falls on these old dirt roads

Like heaven forgot my name

Every mile feels haunted now

And every memory burns the same

The crows all gather on dead oak limbs

Like they know what waits below

And I hear my sins in the midnight wind

Down where the black water rolls

Chorus

Where the river flows

Where the river winds

I’m gonna lose my soul in time

Let the current steal

What I couldn’t leave behind

Wash me away from this broken life of mine

Where the river flows

That’s where sorrow grows

And I’ll disappear where the river winds

⸻

There’s an old bridge standing crooked now

Like my faith after all these years

I carved your name in weathered wood

Right beside my fears

Now the moon hangs low like judgment day

And the stars don’t even shine

Just shadows dancing on the riverbank

Waiting for me to cross that line

Chorus

Where the river flows

Where the river winds

I’m gonna lose my soul in time

Every ghost I loved

Still walks inside my mind

Calling my name where the river winds

⸻

Mama said some hearts ain’t built

For carrying pain this long

Some men slowly fade away

Some turn hurt into songs

And tonight I’m standing at the shoreline

With the dark and the divine

One step from forever’s silence

Where the river winds

(soft outro)

“If heaven was looking for me… it knew where I’d be.”
