verse
I could've sworn this was the way
Tell me again, why do we stay
On such a lonely, lonely, lonely road?
You'd never guess, I'd never know
We're on the same side, and it's going to
Be a lonely, lonely, lonely road
chorus
If I follow you to the river
Send my blues out to the sea
Will you stay with me forever?
Will you chase me in my dreams?
If I throw it all in the river
And let the rhythm take the lead
Will it stay with you whenever
verse
You had a choice I couldn't make
And this is the last turn that you take
On a lonely, lonely, lonely road
Give me your hand, here is my heart
Where does it end? When do we start?
On a lonely, lonely, lonely road
chorus
If I follow you to the river
Send my blues out to the sea
Will you stay with me forever?
Will you chase me in my dreams?
If I throw it all in the river
And let the rhythm take the lead
Will it stay with you whenever

I'm an echo in your shadow
And your shadows, they run so deep
In the river, your reflection
Is a promise you couldn't keep
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know

I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know

If I follow you to the river (if I follow you to the river)
And your shadows, they run so deep
If I follow you to the river (and your shadows, they run so deep)
In the river, your reflection
Is a promise you couldn't keep
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
hook
If I follow you to the river (oh)
If I follow you to the river (oh, if I follow you to the river)
In the river, your reflection
Is a promise you couldn't keep
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
outro
(Oh, if I follow you to the river)
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know (ooh)
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
