River of Memories

Everybody's trying to lose a piece of their heart
But we strain the thread and it tears apart
So many people climbin' and they just can't stop
Livin' for tomorrow, tryin' to beat the clock

Tryin' to change the cycle, going round and round
But the ink's run dry and the book ain't bound
You say give me some direction 'cause I've lost my way
But they don't make maps for the world we made

Playin' with fire, lovin' on a ledge
When emotion stems from some false pretense
Oh remember how it was when love so easily came?
Help me find the feeling again

River of memories
Give it one more try
'Cause you never know until you show
What's there behind your eyes
River of memories
River left in me and I
Disguise it all behind the wall
Of broken hearts gone by

Now I'm runnin' circles just to catch a view
But it seems like love runs away with you
So many people trying, but they just can't see
That a captured heart doesn't want to be free

Playin' with fire, lovin' on a ledge
When emotion stems from some false pretense
Oh remember how it was when love so easily came?
Help me find the feeling again

River of memories
Give it one more try
'Cause you never know until you show
What's there behind your eyes
River of memories
River left in me and I
Disguise it all behind the wall
Of broken hearts gone by
