OLE:Candles on the table in a darkened room;A long-forgotten voice that sings a half-familiar tune.Memories I can’t quite hold, but can’t let go.A bitter smile, and hair as white and cold as snow,And river eyes...DECEMBER:Candles on the table in a darkened room;Hands entwined like voices as we sing his favorite tune.Well-loved hands that played me like a mandolin --The River told me it would take me back to him --The River lies. BOTH: So River turn back, turn away from this door. River be kind, for I’ve been here before. River it’s something I won’t recognize... D: For I have no faith left in cruel River lies... O: I have no faith left in cold river eyes.D:Letras de cancionesDarkness in the corners where the firelight fades;I never meant to leave him. We were both of us betrayed.The journey seemed so simple -- they all were before --I thought that I’d come home, and so I locked the doorFor River lies.O:Darkness in the corners where the firelight fades;A moment and my simple, careless plans were all unmade.A door shuts and a key turns and the world is lost.I wonder, when she left me, if she held the costIn river eyes. BOTH: So River turn back, turn away from this door. River be kind, for I’ve been here before. River there’s something here I recognize... O: And I have no love left for cruel river eyes... D: I have no time left for cold River lies. BOTH: River be gentle, oh River be kind, D: River please carry me home. BOTH: River I’m searching but how can I find O: A memory I’ve never known. BOTH: So River turn back, turn away from this door. River be kind, for I’ve been here before. O: River I’m burning from all the goodbyes D: All of the silence, and all of the lies -- O: All of the madness I’ve seen in her eyes -- D: All of the choices we tried to disguise -- BOTH: And I have no faith left in cold River lies.Written on: 2001-10-11.
