Rivers Run Dry

Bm G D A 2x Bm G D A My love for you was like a flowing river, Bm G And you drank me up.. you took too much, D A Now my bed is stone. Bm G And over the shallows, D A where once the water kissed you� Bm G D A there flies a bird, though he flies alone. Bm G D A And he flies away�into unknown tomorrows, Bm G D A And he waits for the water to return. Bm G D A Until that day he sings his song of sorrow, Bm G D A So I wait for him to change his tune. D A Bm G Oh bird, are you singing just for me? D G A Or are there other rivers that run dry? D A Bm G Oh bird please fly away and see. D G A I need to know if she�s alright. Bm G D A 4x Bm G So he flies away� D A Though desert sands and mountains. Bm G His wings are tired� D A but his strength is in his song. Bm G D A And he comes to green wide open pastures, Bm G D A Cut with a river painted the deepest blue. Bm G D A So he stops to drink and then he sees her. Bm G She swims in the shallows, D A Just like she did before. Bm G D A He sings his song though she can�t hear him� Bm G D A For she drinks the water of another love. D A Bm G Oh bird, are you singing just for me? D G A Or are there other rivers that run dry? D A Bm G Oh bird please fly away and see. D G A I need to know if she�s alright. Bm G D A./
