Lyrics

Took a friend I found Across some blood red river Never did find my way home In time to forgive her Why must people always want what they can't have? Why must people always grab what they'd never grasp? How did we get so far? How do we move so fast away From the lilac-lilied lake I'm sure we used to play Is it only a dream away? Took a raft I found Across some blood red river Never did find my way home In time for my dinner Why must people always want what they never have? Why is it a crime to miss a part of you that's bled? How did we get so far? How do we move so fast away From the lilac-lilied lake I'm sure we used to play Is it only a dream away? Only a dream away Lost a friend I found down some blood red river Never did find my way home In time to forget her Why must people always want what they can't have? Why must people always take, but forget to ask? How do we get so far? How do we move so fast away From the lilac lilied lake Where I'm sure where we used to play Is it only a dream away? Only a dream away
