Blood Red River

[Verse 1]

Took a friend I found across some blood red river

Never did find my way home in time to forgive her

[Pre-Chorus]

Why must people always want what they can't have?

Why must people always grab what they'd never grasp?

[Chorus]

How do we get so far?

How do we move so fast away

From the lilac-lillied lake

I'm sure we used to stay

Is it only a dream away?

[Verse 2]

Took a raft I found across some blood red river

Never did find my home in time for my dinner

[Pre-Chorus]

Why must people always want what they never had?

Why is it a crime to miss a part of you that's bled?

[Chorus]

How do we get so far?

How do we move so fast away

From the lilac-lillied lake

I'm sure we used to stay

Is it only a dream away?

Only a dream away

[Verse 3]

Lost a friend I found down some blood red river

Never did find my way home in time to forget her

[Pre-Chorus]

Why must people always want what they can't have?

Why must people always take, but forget to ask?

[Chorus]

How do we get so far?

How do we move so fast away

From the lilac-lillied lake

Where I'm told we used to play

Is it only a dream away?

Only a dream, only a dream away

Away
