we age no more than the river
each day wears away at us all
and the river runs red with sunset
away from the shadows call
but high on a bridge in the evening
the waves form pictures below
in a rippled frame i saw you
in a place where i can't go
the years and the miles have shown me
no matter the when or the where
it's our heart we give to the ocean
and our words we leave to the air
and no matter the why's or the couldn'ts
the shouldn'ts or wouldn'ts or can'ts
our best words are only reminders
that our love is a lonely glance
now my hope is the hope of a dreamer
to find you adrift at sea
where the lonely souls come sailing
to see where the winds blow free
now run river, red with sunset
i needn't the pictures tonight
i've hid my dream in a bottle
and buried it far from sight
