[Verse 1]
Can’t sleep, so I’ll walk that half a mile
While no one’s awake to find you
There below the undertow
Of the river, I’ve seen you next to me
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Hold my breath, in the quiet too
Find the words and sing them out for you
‘Til all that’s left are the birds and me
It’s 3am and I can barely breathe
[Chorus]
I’ll sing to the river, sing to the river
And let you know how I miss you so
I’ll sing to the river, sing to the river
And let you know, I miss you so
[Verse 2]
The still of those nights
The calm of the lights reflecting on all that is gone
The darkening sky, the moon and the eye
Waiting for a sign, anything at all
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Why don’t we talk? I can hear you now
And it breaks me still why we couldn’t work out
A way to say it’s all okay
I love you so and always will in every way
[Chorus]
I’ll sing to the river, sing to the river
And let you know how I miss you so
I’ll sing to the river, sing to the river
And let you know, I miss you so
[Bridge]
This is where we let you go
Into the world, into the air, into the water
Let it take you everywhere
You are everywhere, everywhere
[Chorus]
I’ll sing to the river, sing to the river
And let you know how I miss you so
I’ll sing to the river, sing to the river
And let you know, I miss you so
[Outro]
I’ll sing to the river, sing to the river
I miss you so
I’ll sing to the river
Sing to the river
I miss you so
