Lyrics

There’s a sign on the road up ahead by the river,
That’s my house on the hill where the sun never shines.
There’s a storm to the East and there’s clouds coming over,
And you’re losing your way as the light slowly dies.
I’ve a room for the night and I’ll put on a fire,
I can shelter you here till it’s safe to go on,
Conversation is more than I’ve had in a long time,
Loneliness is a place I have come to know well.

Search my eyes, see the cold,
I’ve lived my life the way the river flows,
Touch my heart, touch the stone,
I’ve seen love go the way the river flows.

I can show you your room, and I’ll put on some coffee,
Pay no heed to the pictures that hang on the wall.
Memories that I sometimes will choose to remember,
She was someone I knew from a long time ago.

Search my eyes, see the cold,
I’ve lived my life the way the river flows,
Touch my heart, touch the stone,
I’ve seen love go the way the river flows

I can take you another way out in the morning,
There’s a bridge to the West that will weather the storm.
And the lines are still up, if there’s someone needs calling,
There’s a phone in your room where you can be alone.

Search my eyes, see the cold,
I’ve lived my life the way the river flows,
Touch my heart, touch the stone,
I’ve seen love go the way the river flows
