Rogue Valley The Bottom Of The Riverbed
she said I don't want to lose you but I'm close to giving up
there's always a trade off and there's never enough
of you to go around when I need you the most
nothing lasts forever but can last a long long time
I'll be the wind of summer in retreat
you'll be the leaves burning at my feet
she said I don't want to lose you, but were you ever mine?
your heart is a stone that I push up a hill that's unkind
with no forward momentum it falls back on itself
nothing lasts forever but some things are worth the price
I'll be the song you'll never get quite right
you'll be the dogs howling in the night
if you love me please don't stop me
please don't want me if you love me
she said I would fall to pieces if it was you instead of me
putting an end to this tomfoolery
this coldness gives me strength sometimes you take
what you can
nothing lasts forever it just takes a while to pass
I'll be the boat in the waters up ahead
you'll be the anchor at the bottom of the riverbed
