Verse 1

I used to find myself dreaming of you

Hoping that one day my dream would come true.

And suddenly out of the blue

You looked at me and said you loved me too

Verse 2

Our love was so special, it made me so glad,

There was nothing to compare with this thing that we had.

We used to take long walks on the beach

With you by my side there's nothing I couldnt reach

And,

Chorus:

Now I'm left here lying in my river of tears,

And thats where I'm gonna lay for the rest of my years

Until you come and take away all my fears

And pull me out from the pain, in my river of tears

I didnt know our love was slipping away

I tried to find something worthy to say

But it was too late when by the time I knew

I watched you leave with nothing that I could do.

I shouldn't have ever let your go

ohoh yeeeaaaahhhh

Chorus

Instrumental Break

Now I'm left here lying in my river of tears,

And thats where I'm gonna lay for the rest of my years

Until you come and take away all my fears

And pull me out from the pain, in my river of tears

Last Verse ( rap )

Girl you got me drowning in your river of tears

I Cant believe you i was with you after all these years

So you found a new man i can deal with that

I wished upon a star that i had you back

Your from tenesee you played in the snow

you Planted you favorite flower and hoped that it would growed

You like Scarey movies and ice cream on a stick

We used to go to the beach take walks till 6

I remember we watched the sunset on your fathers dock

We stood on the shore trying to skip rocks

I you hung the memories peacefully on the wall

I hope this river of tears doesnt flow that far

yeah

Chorus

Now I'm left here lying in my river of tears,

And thats where I'm gonna lay for the rest of my years

Until you come and take away all my fears

And pull me out from the pain, in my river of tears
