The Tallest Man on Earth - Rivers lyrics

[Verse1] So there's longing in the shoulders now There was a wildness in that time Can't we now say Oh sweet were the hours, but hours to find There was no way to live in simple dreams There was no straightness to our line Gravel in hand Darling, we're moving the mountains around [Chorus] This is the fire of leaving pains When the love is gone, but the need remains Into the shivering cold of day When the house is gone, but the street remain Oh, I guess it's true I guess these rivers never knew [Verse 2] And so finally the night time comes There is no lot to cast a blame No need to hide No fear who I'd meet in some grocery lane [Chorus] This is the fire of leaving pains When the love is gone, but the need remains Into the shivering cold of day When the house is gone, but the street remain Oh, I guess it's true I guess these rivers never knew [Instrumental] [Verse 3] And I'll sing of seasons 'til you turn me off I see the way of letting go They'll be the same And whatever changes these changes I know [Chorus] This is the fire of leaving pains When we're not that strong and the need remains Into the shivering lights of day When the house is gone, but the fields remain Oh, I guess it's true I guess these rivers never knew [Instrumental]
