Was it something I said that made you angry with me Made you dig a deep river to keep you from me Oh, the water is rushing, come to sweep me away 'Less I die of sorrow, I will cross it today I would build me a bridge a hundred meters long To see the other side of what I did wrong Well you say you don't hate me, but I guess that I'm scared That with a river between us, you'll no longer care I would build a boat, and paddle agaist all sorrow And if I sail down the river, then I'll be back again tomorrow I would face cold d**h, run and leap to your side And if I fall in the river, I'll be warmed by your sight I would beg your forgiveness for the pain I've fed And I'd find the source of the river you've bled Then I'd close the gates of the dam I built there And never again will you have anything to fear Well I never knew that your tears ran so deep But when I'ved dammed those tears, I will kiss your sweet cheek I will hold you close 'till your tears finally cease And I'll sing you a lullaby to bring you peace
