Lyrics

It's 3 miles to the river, That would carry me away, And 2 miles to the dusty street, That I saw you on Today, It's 4 miles to my lonely room, Where I will hide my face, And about a half a mile to the downtown bar, That I ran from in disgrace, Lord how long do I have to keep on running, Seven hours, Seven days or Seven years, All I know is since you've been gone, Feels like I'm drowning in a river, Drowning in a river of tears, Drowning in a river, Feels like I'm drowning, Drowning in a river, In 3 more days Ill leave this town, And disappear without a trace, A year from now maybe settle down, Where no one knows my face, I wish that I could hold you, One more time to ease the pain, But my times run out and I got to go, Got to run away again, Still I catch myself thinking, One day I'll find my way back here, You'll save me from drowning, Drowning in a river, Drowning in a river of tears, Drowning in a river, Feels like I'm drowning, Drowning in a river Oh how long must this go on, Drowning in a river, Drowning in a river of tears
