Wait by the River

I will wait by the river
In the light of the moon
At the edge of the city
I will wait for you
Though I cant wait forever
Someday Ill be dead and gone
And I wont be forgiven
For what Ive done
I will wait by the river
I will wait by the river
I will wait by the river
I will wait by the river
I will cry out to heaven
As it rains down on me
I will beg for forgiveness
Get down on my knees
If I cant change the weather
Maybe I can change your mind
If we cant be together
Whats the point of life
Baby, I didnt mean the things I said
I dont honestly wish you were dead
Im a fool; Im just a man
If I only could hold you again
And the stars fill the river
As it flows into the sky
And the mind leaves the body
And floats higher and higher
If we cant be together
I will leave this world behind
If I cant touch your body
Can I touch the sky?
I will wait by the river
I will wait by the river
I will wait by the river
I will wait by the river
