River of Sorrow

I had a dream the other night
Remembered in the morning light
Looking up the sky was cold and gray

I was standing by a river wide
You were on the other side
The only bridge across washed away

And i was calling to you
You couldn't hear me
River of sorrow raging on
Rain falling down on me
And i was just a memory
Everything we had was gone

Lying here I think of you
And all that I have put you through
Choices that I made along the way

Broken hearts both yours and mine
All the dreams we left behind
Are lessons that I learned and the price I paid

And now I'm calling to you 
You can't hear me
River of sorrow rages on
Let the rain fall down on me
And leave you with my memory
Love that we had is gone

Yeah and I know that it's time for moving on
