Wide Mouth Mason - The River Song lyrics

He ran to the river but the water'd run dry He ran to the candle but the light had done died And I used to love you and not even try He ran to the temple with tears in his eyes He fell on his knees and reached up at the same time Said I only love you knowing I'll die All my life I've tried to be good Or at least to myself You did what you thought you should But it hurt me like hell Like hell He ran to his mother and to her he cried You never told me the whole story and I Think all along I pretended to try All my life I've tried to be good Or at least to myself You did what you thought you should But it hurt me like hell Like hell
