VERSE ONE

Winding, flowing, rivers of regret
Thinkin bout the years, when we first met
We were just two children then
As we often read in rhymes
The difference
Is this story ... is still mine

VERSE TWO

Lonely, hurtful, moments we did share
You just needed freedom, it wasn’t there
Alone at night ... the tears did flow
And it seems I was the one to know
What a crime it was ... to be alone in love

*CHORUS

Bars self-made
And the punishment above
And beyond the call of a heartfelt love
Another chance, maybe then he’ll see ... who cares

The crimes he’d selfishly done to me
On this running river of misery
On some winding, dusty, darkened ... road of love

VERSE THREE

You walk alone at night, wish on a star
Memories of the family ... don’t seem far
But that was oh so long ago
As you hang your head in shame
Cause you know, that you're the one to blame

BRIDGE

Tiny hands reach out for him
At the old house on the hill
Paint is faded ... there’s a ghost ... that he still sees
A woman that gave herself all to him
But he just could not recognize
A need an want ... within ... her sad blue eyes

BREAK

*CHORUS

Music plays for first three lines of chorus
