[Chorus]
It's tears in the river
He’s gone, gone forever
He’s a sun that’s settin'
So go on girl, forget him
Diamonds on the water
Are here if you want ‘em
I swear if we’re together
I could love you better
Than tears in the river
[Verse 1]
In the heart of Alabama where the sweet magnolias bloom
There’s a young girl with a heart that’s broke in two
And she feels all out of luck now
Doesn’t know just feels so stuck now
All alone and hurt from what he put her through
[Pre-Chorus]
If you lеt him roll out with the tide
I know I can dry those
[Chorus]
Tеars in the river
He’s gone, gone forever
He’s a sun that’s settin'
So go on girl, forget him
Diamonds on the water
Are here if you want ‘em
I swear if we’re together
I could love you better
Than tears in the river
[Verse 2]
There’s a young boy with a guitar and he’s got some songs for you
Whatcha say, girl, if he wrote you a line or two?
Come on, hop up in this truck now
Drive to Nashville chasing luck now
Watch the memories wash away in that rearview
[Pre-Chorus]
If you let him roll out with the tide
I know I can dry those
[Chorus]
Tears in the river
He’s gone, gone forever
He’s a sun that’s settin'
So go on girl, forget him
Diamonds on the water
Are here if you want ‘em
I swear if we’re together
I could love you better
Than tears in the river
[Outro]
(Tears in the river)
(He's gone, gone forever)
(I swear if we're together)
(I could love you better)
(Than tears in the river)
