Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The porch light flickers, shadows fall,
This house don’t feel like home at all.
The walls once held our laughter tight,
Now they echo in the dead of night.
[Prechorus]
I tried to hold on, I tried to stay,
But love can’t grow where the roots decay.
[Chorus]
When the river runs dry, you can’t force the flow,
No use in clingin’ to what we both know.
The heart wants water, it craves the rain,
But all we’re left with is dust and pain.
So I’ll say goodbye, when the river runs dry.
[Verse 2]
Your picture’s faded on the shelf,
We’ve both been strangers to ourselves.
I see your tears, I feel your hurt,
But we can’t plant seeds in barren dirt.
[Prechorus]
I gave you my best, you gave me yours,
But we’re lost at sea with no oars.
[Chorus]
When the river runs dry, you can’t force the flow,
No use in clingin’ to what we both know.
The heart wants water, it craves the rain,
But all we’re left with is dust and pain.
So I’ll say goodbye, when the river runs dry.
