Tears in the River

It's tears in the river He's gone, gone forever He's a sun that's setting So, go on, girl, forget him Diamonds on the water Are here if you want 'em I swear, if we're together I could love you better Than tears in the river (tears in the river) In the heart of Alabama, where the sweet magnolias bloom There's a young girl with a heart that's broke in two And she feels all out of luck now Doesn't know, just feels so stuck now All alone and hurt from what he put her through If you let him roll out with the tide I know I can dry those Tears in the river He's gone, gone forever He's a sun that's setting So, go on, girl, forget him Diamonds on the water Are here if you want 'em I swear, if we're together I could love you better Than tears in the river (tears in the river) There's a young boy with a guitar, and he's got some songs for you Whatcha say, girl, if he wrote you a line or two? Come on, hop up in this truck now Drive to Nashville, chasing luck now Watch the memories wash away in that rearview If you let him roll out with the tide I know I can dry those Tears in the river He's gone, gone forever He's a sun that's setting So, go on, girl, forget him Diamonds on the water Are here if you want 'em I swear, if we're together I could love you better Than tears in the river (tears in the river) (Tears in the river) (He's gone, gone forever) (I swear, if we're together) (I could love you better) (Than tears in the river)
