"River of Love" by T-Bone Burnett (from the "T-Bone Burnett" Album)

Verse

There's a river of love that runs through all times.

There's a river of grief that floods through our lives. It starts when a heart gets broken in two By the thief of belief in anything that's true. But there's a river of love that runs through all times.

Verse

There's a river of love that runs through all times. But there's a river of tears that flows through our eyes. We fight through the night for freedom as it fades Into a jail where we fail every time we make a break. But there's a river of love that runs through all times.

INSTRUMENTAL VERSE

Bridge

I had to run before I knew how to crawl. The first step was hard, but I've had trouble with them all. But now the night grows darker and the day grows dim

And I know I never will see you again. And I always made you happy.

Verse

There's a river of love that runs through all times. There's a river of fire that burns with no light. The flame is the pain of dreams gone up in smoke. >From the lies we deny and we breathe them 'til we choke. But there's a river of love that runs through all times.
