《The River》歌词

[00:00:00] The River - Missy Higgins (蜜西·希金斯)

[00:00:35] She ran until her face was numb with cold

[00:00:38] And wore a cotton gown that blazed the night untold

[00:00:44] She ran until her feet refused to hold

[00:00:47] So heavy a heart for someone merely ten years old

[00:00:52] And when she reached the river her knees began to shiver

[00:00:56] Her head with pounding voices from home

[00:01:01] Behind her was a vision a painful apparition

[00:01:05] Of a darker world that no one should know

[00:01:13] Somebody's bed will never be warm again

[00:01:22] The river will keep this friend

[00:01:31] The somebody's bed will never be warm again

[00:01:39] No never again

[00:01:49] She dived beneath the water's icy skin

[00:01:53] Hoping the cold would kill the smell of angry gin

[00:01:58] And her eyes grew wider than they'd ever been

[00:02:01] Just wishing the numbness to cut deeper with it's pins

[00:02:07] And as her body lay there she decided to stay there

[00:02:11] Till darkness came to pull her away

[00:02:15] And beautifully she sank as up river was the bank

[00:02:19] Where some bodiless troubles would stay

[00:02:27] Somebody's bed will never be warm again

[00:02:36] The river will keep this friend

[00:02:45] Somebody's bed will never be warm again

[00:02:54] No never again

[00:03:16] Somebody's bed will never be warm again

[00:03:24] The river will keep this friend

[00:03:33] Somebody's bed will never be warm again

[00:03:42] No never again

[00:03:47] No never again
