lyrics

The river's cold and the river's wide,
And we were not prepared.
You heard my calls from the other side,
Hung in crystal air.
Though I know beyond this snow,
There is a Spring,
And though I know the winds will blow,
Beneath your wing,
And carry you away.

The snow came late but the snow came hard,
And the whole town's off-guard.
April was just the image on,
Generic greeting cards.
Though I know the night will slow,
I can't find my strength.
And though I know the sun will show,
I can't face my pain.

I'm standing at the banks,
Ready to jump I think,
But I carry so much weight that I know for sure I'd sink,
Without you to carry me.
