Beth Orton - Blood Red River lyrics

rate me

Took a friend I found

Across some blood red river

Never did find my way home

In time to forgive her

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

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

How did we get so far?

How do we move so fast away

From the lilac-lilied lake

I'm sure we used to play

Is it only a dream away?

Took a raft I found

Across some blood red river

Never did find my way home

In time for my dinner

Why must people always want what they never have?

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

How did we get so far?

How do we move so fast away

From the lilac-lilied lake

I'm sure we used to play

Is it only a dream away?

Only a dream away

Lost a friend

I found down some blood red river

Never did find my way home

In time to forget her

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

Why must people always take, but forget to ask?

How do we get so far?

How do we move so fast away

From the lilac lilied lake

Where I'm sure where we used to play

Is it only a dream away?

Only a dream away
