Wait by the River

Wait by the River - Lord Huron

Written by：Ben Schneider

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 can't wait forever

Someday I'll be dead and gone

And I won't be forgiven

For what I've 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 can't change the weather

Maybe I can change your mind

If we can't be together

What's the point of life

Baby I didn't mean the things I said

I don't honestly wish you were dead

I'm a fool I'm 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 can't be together

I will leave this world behind

If I can't 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
