[Verse 1]
I'm losing all my innocence
Door to the river
I know I've stopped making much sense
Door to the river
I think I'll leave and I'll take some rest
Door to the river
[Chorus]
All my best wishes are just lies
Are just lies
[Verse 2]
I'd love to see colours like you
Door to the river
Resurrected and feeling blue
Door to the river
I've seen the glory and yes it's true
Door to the river
[Chorus]
Fearful of the future now
The future is now
But it's true the things
You feel don't go
The people that you love hold on
Baby I lost my way
Following our star
But I guess that's just how you are
How you are
[Verse 3]
The majesty, the majesty
Door to the river
Pre-eminent amongst the free
Door to the river
Happy and drifting endlessly
Door to the river
[Chorus]
All my best wishes are just lies
Are just lies
Sun breaks and cloudbursts
The hardest of our words
The conflict of sin all kept within
Baby I lost my way
Following our star
But I guess that's just how you are
How you are
Just how you are
How you are
