Song Lyrics

"I Know Why The River Runs"

by Julie Miller
Album: Broken Things

When I reach to hold you, I'll still be alone,
When I hear the ringing of the telephone, I'll think it is you, but it will not be true.

I know why the river runs to a place somewhere far away,
I know why the sky is crying when there aren't any words to say.

I could play the message that you left for me,
I can hear your voice, and I could still believe that you will soon me home...but you will never call.

I know why the river runs to a place somewhere far away,
I know why the sky is crying when there aren't any words to say.

There's a silence that I don't want to hear,
There's a hole now, where my heart used to be,
They say that healing comes in time, but I don't know what that means.

I lay here for so long; you will never come.

I know why the river runs to a place somewhere far away,
I know why the sky is crying when there aren't any words to say,
I know why the river runs to a place somewhere far away,
I know why the sky is crying when there aren't any words to say.

Then there aren't any words to say,
There aren't any words to say.
