River

Would we get excited 'bout a first kiss if there wasn't a last one?

Would we know a good day if we never got through a bad one?

Would we relish and miss the sand slipping through the hourglass?

Would we even bother looking back?

Would we know what flying felt like if we didn't crash some?

Oh

Would it mean anything to hold you

If I didn't have to let you go?

Maybe that's why the sun sets

Maybe that's why a star fades

Maybe that's why the song ends

Maybe that's why a heart breaks

Maybe nothing would matter

If we all lived forever

Maybe that's why there's a waterfall

At the end of the river

The fact we get to be alive at the same point in history

It feels like a miracle every single time that our lips meet

Waking up tomorrow, we know, will never be a guarantee

So, baby, while you're here with me

Let's stay up all night talking while the world's asleep

Oh

Would it mean anything to hold you

If I didn't have to let you go?

Maybe that's why the sun sets

Maybe that's why a star fades

Maybe that's why the song ends

Maybe that's why a heart breaks

Maybe nothing would matter

If we all lived forever

Maybe that's why there's a waterfall

At the end of the river

Maybe that's why there's a waterfall

At the end of the river

Maybe that's why there's a waterfall

At the end of the river
