I cry these tears out into my cup
And think about those moments lost.
I let all my heart stream down my cheeks
And pour all the grief out from my soul.
My soul aches, my heart hurts,
The pain is overwhelming.
The pieces of my heart are scattered
Across the broken fields of my life.
I wait for you to come back to me.
Wait for you to come home.
You’re across the river, on the other side
And I feel so lost and alone.
I sing of your virtues, I sing of your flaws.
I sing of your life so that you may live on.
Live through my words and live on through my line.
Love will circle ‘round and keep your soul alive.
When I think back and wish it weren’t true
I wonder if I was just dreaming.
A nightmare from which I cannot awake
Stuck forgotten here in this place.
My heart it stops beating, stuffed up in my throat
A lump I can’t swallow away.
The tears stream down until there’s no more
So I remember you with this song.
I sing of your virtues, I sing of your flaws.
I sing of your life so that you may live on.
Live through my words and live on through my line.
Love will circle ‘round and keep your soul alive.
I sing of your virtues, I sing of your flaws.
I sing of your life so that you may live on.
Live through my words and live on through my line.
Love will circle ‘round and keep your soul alive.
I sing of your virtues, I sing of your flaws.
I sing of your life so that you may live on.
