The River

How many times have you forgiven?
The scars have healed but they can't be hidden on you
All the pain and shame that's been left behind
When you close your eyes it'll never be right
The light still shines over me and you

This I know
This I know

We sold you down the river
We sold you down the river
We sold you out for sure
How many times forgiven?
There's no life unless you're living
No tears no more
I'm glad you closed the door

So dry your eyes, you gotta keep on moving
The streets I know are paved with new beginnings, it's true
The light's above but you walk below
Illuminates your heart and the way back home
Seems to take a breath you made it so much more

Then you know
This I know

We sold you down the river
We sold you down the river
We sold you out for sure
How many times forgiven?
There's no life unless you're living
No tears no more
I'm glad you closed the door
I'm glad you closed the door
Ooh-ohh
I'm glad you closed the door
I'm glad you closed the door
I'm glad you closed the door
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

How many times forgiven?
There's no life unless you're living
No tears no more
I'm glad you closed the door

This I know
I'm glad you closed the door
This I know

We sold you down the river
We sold you down the river
We sold you out for sure
How many times forgiven?
There's no life unless you're living
No tears no more
I'm glad you closed the door

We sold you down the river
We sold you down the river
We sold you out for sure
How many times forgiven?
There's no life unless you're living
No tears no more
I'm glad you closed the door
