The River Is Advancing (Original Version) - by GVG.Creations

[Verse 1] The river is advancing. I hear it late at night. I heard it in my heart. When you told me I was right. When you told me you were tired. When you told me you were tired of being alive. [Verse 2] And the river is advancing. It gets louder every day. And I watch it from the bank. It's like watching my life fade. I don't even have the energy to care. 'Cause it's just so much trouble. [Pre-chorus] And I have no one with which to share. I have no one with which to share. I have no one with which to share. [Chorus] And the river is advancing. It will take it all away. It'll take my broken heart. It'll take my unmade bed. It'll take hunger and thirst. And the river is advancing. It'll take the friends I lost. It'll take the ones who stayed. It'll take all the things that I wish that I had said. It'll take all the words that I have never heard. And the river is advancing. It'll take my lover's mouth. It'll take my mother's house. It'll take the fear and doubt. It'll take the air and clouds. It'll take the forest trees. It'll take the birds and bees. It'll take the worst of me. It'll take the hurt from me. Cause the river is advancing. It'll take the dirt from me. It'll take the Earth from me. And I'll be free. The river is advancing. And I'll be free. The river is advancing. Yeah. [Instrumental]
