The River is Runnin' Dry

The river is running dry

The circles are in the sky

Of the questions that fill my mind

They all carry the current of time

So why, why oh why can't I

So why, why oh why can't I

The river is running dry, dry

The promise is in the sky, sky

When the levy is heavy with the rise

And the riverbed will overflow with time

So why, why oh why can't I

Oh why, why oh why can't I

When I'm lifting my eyes

Covered in colors of plenty

But I cover my eyes to blind to see

I wanna know you more clearly

Open up my hands lay down my pride

So why, why oh why can't I

Oh why, why oh why can't I

When I'm lifting my eyes
