Lyrics
I was wandering in the dark, trying to clear my head and heal my heart. The hour was getting late, so turned around, I can’t see straight. Face against the cold night air, when I saw you standing there. Imagine my surprise, I couldn’t believe my eyes. It’s been eight long years, and since then, I have cried… A river of tears. Down by the river where the catfish swim, the moonlight was on your skin. You took my breath away, while the wind whispered your name. The mist across the lake, the memory of your fate. I cry out your name, you smile and gently say.. It’s been eight long years, it’s time for you to cross… Your river of tears. It’s been years since you were slain. I was never, never the same. I’ve been gut-wrenched from the pain. Now you’re back with me again. River of tears. River of tears. God only knows how she was right, my lover there in the moonlit night. It’s been eight long years, it’s time for me to cross my river of tears.
