Like A River

There’s a motel in Texas
Hard bed under wide blue sky
I had a dream there
But morning came too soon
I rolled over
I said it out loud
I said give me one moment
Just one more moment
To finish this dream

I wanna be
More like a river
And less like a wall
Not try to hold back these feelings at all
Cause when I miss you
When I’m dying to kiss you
I need to let that flow
More like a river

There’s a house in the mountains
Filled with bits of me and you
I had a dream there
But morning came too soon
I’ve been holding on
It’s been holding me back
I don’t want to give in
I know what you’d say to me
Finish this dream

Can I be
More like a river
And less like a wall
Not try to hold back these feelings at all
Cause when I miss you
When I’m dying to kiss you
I need to let that flow
More like a river

Cause in the morning
There are kids and dogs
And bills and sunlight
And a new day
And a new day
And another new day...without you
