Lyrics

We've been nearing closing time since last October
The night is young but we got older
Holding on to hope and pain and misery
Like one last call and that shot of whiskey
Oh, I know you know the silence like the back of your hand
And like that lonely road you're driving me away again
So if I'm leaving when the night is over
Would you call me on my way back home?
Give me a reason for not holding me closer
Or being scared to ever let me go
Cause I've seen the rivers, darling
And I know the way the water flows
Oh, this ain't easy
And it sure as hell ain't gold
Digging through the lows and highs
Trying to find some closure
Of why it was so hard just gettin' to know you
All along you took the side of the enemy
Oh, so when I'm gone
Don't say you miss me
So if I'm leaving when the night is over
Would you call me on my way back home?
Give me a reason for not holding me closer
Or being scared to ever let me go
Cause I've seen the rivers, darling
And I know the way the water flows
Oh, this ain't easy
And it sure as hell ain't gold
I know, you know the silence like the back of your hand
Tell me, does leaving make me less of a man
When you know that I don't want to
So if I'm leaving when the night is over
Would you call me on my way back home?
Give me a reason for not holding me closer
Or being scared to ever let me go
Cause I've seen the rivers, darling
And I know the way the water flows
I can't keep forgiving, ahh yeah
For all of these nights I left alone
Still I keep on coming back to you
And you keep on running like rivers do
And I've seen the rivers
I've seen the rivers run like you
