River In The Sky

(I am alone)

When I am alone
Afraid of the dark
She sings in the night
Holds me close to her heart
My only friend who can comprehend
Why she visits me, time and again

Like a river in the sky
Why, why do we cry?
Do we cry?
Just like a river in the sky
Why, oh why do we cry?
Do we cry?

I walk this life
Doubt on my mind
I pray to fly, burden free
She covers me so patiently
As I learn to deal with the pain

Just like a river in the sky
Why, oh why do we cry?
Do we cry?
Just like a river in the sky
Why, oh why do we cry?
Do we cry?

If I let myself go back in time
I see the sadness in her eyes
She knew the tears would always come and go
Like the river in the
Like a river in the sky

Like a river in the sky
Why, oh why do we cry?
Do we cry?
Just like a river in the sky
Why, oh why do we cry
Do we cry?
Do we cry?
