RiverOfTears
Alessia cara

Still got the
flowers that
you sent
And the note
you wrote that said
we're meant to be
forever
I keep them all
as evidence
In a drawer
under the mirror
filled with
empty promises
I don't know why
I keep
letting you lie to me
Hard as I try
It seems
I can't break away
I thought that
you would
be the hero
Come and
save the day
But you're a villain
You sins unforgiven
I'm going down
and you have
watched me drown
In a river of tears
lost beneath
the stream
Under the waves
I've found the
strength to say
The river of tears
has washed me clean
Go 'head and
wish me well
I'll cry a
wishing well
I'll fly
before I fail
I'll set sail
and drift away
So I won't
need you here
Love sinks and
hope floats
In a river of tears
In a river of tears
I catch your scent
in every wind
And I recall
the love we had
I can't pretend
that I don't miss you
Every now and then
But the hurt is
for the better
Moving on
it's now or never
Lost in the tide
I can't keep
my pillows dry
Like there's a sea
in my eyes
I realize that
sometimes love
brings you flowers
Then it builds
you coffins
And far too often
We end up falling
to our demise
I'm going down
and you have
watched me drown
In a river of tears
lost beneath
the stream
Under the waves
I've found the
strength to say
The river of tears
has washed me clean
Go 'head and
wish me well
I'll cry a
wishing well
I'll fly
before I fail
I'll set sail and
drift away
So I won't
need you here
Love sinks and
hope floats
In a river of tears
In a river of tears
Cry me river
build myself a bridge
I'm over this
can't let memories
become the death of me
I'm glad to see
everything
that you are
And I believe
that you are
everything I needed
But I don't need
no more
I'm going down
and you have
watched me drown
In a river of tears
lost beneath
the stream
Under the waves
I've found the
strength to say
The river of tears
has washed me clean
Go 'head and
wish me well
I'll cry a
wishing well
I'll fly
before I fail
I'll set sail and
drift away
So I won't
need you here
Love sinks and
hope floats
In a river of tears
In a river of tears
