LYRICS

You were such a strong swimmer
and you taught me how
to never fear those tall waves
and you'd stay
in those deep waters
always inviting
to a bed on the bottom

and that current took you away
and it made you pay and pay
when I saw you
I didn't know your name

it was such a long winter
when the ice had thawed
there wasn't much that survived it
it takes more than a strong swimmer
to stay above water
with a body divided

and that current took you away
and it made you pay and pay
when I saw you
I didn't know your name
when I see you they'll give us different names

I clear my mind of joy and sorrow
river doesn't know tomorrow
rolls along with such simplicity
you told me you had stashed away
a note that would explain the way
you felt if we would ever find you gone
the river only knows to carry on
the river only knows to carry on
