River Between Us (Verse 1 ) I ran through the woods with your laughter behind me, Light as the wind through the willow and pine. A single sharp cry, and the world fell to silence— All that I am froze, afraid you weren’t mine. I called out your name to the shadows and hollows, Heart pounding wild as the river at night. I’d give up forever to hold you beside me, To pull you from darkness and carry you to light. (Chorus ) River between us, winding and deep, Secrets and promises, memories we keep. If I lost you, the world would unravel and break— But here in the quiet, our hearts still awake. (Verse 2 ) I dreamed you would always be there when I stumbled, A hand in the darkness, a voice in the rain. But I saw you dancing with someone who sparkled— Her laughter was bright, and I tasted the pain. Will I fade to the edges, forgotten, forsaken, Or will you remember the vows that we made? I’m scared that the river is changing its course, And I might be left on the wrong side someday. (Chorus ) River between us, winding and deep, Secrets and promises, memories we keep. If I lost you, the world would unravel and break— But here in the quiet, our hearts still awake. (Bridge – Benji & Alora, intertwined) I nearly lost you—I can’t bear the thought. I fear losing you to what I am not. You’re part of my soul, no matter who calls. But what if the river divides us, after all? (Final Chorus – Both, harmonizing) River between us, shadow and sun, All of our laughter, the battles we’ve won. Even as time and the world pull apart— I’ll carry your memory deep in my heart. (Outro ) If the river should widen, or storms draw us far, Look for me there, where the wild lilies are. For no matter the distance, or how far you roam, The bond that we share will always lead you home. [AlorawithDragon Music 2026 All Rights Reserved]
