river of tears

(Clapton's guitar cries )

It's three miles to the river.

That would carry me away.

Two miles to the dusty street.

That I saw you on today.

It's four miles to my lonely room.

Where I will hide my face.

And about a half a mile to the downtown bar.

That I ran from in disgrace.

Lord how long have I got to keep on running?

Seven hours, seven days, seven years?

All I know is since you've been gone.

Feel like I'm drowning in a river, drowning in a river of tears.

Drowning in a river.

Feel like I'm drowning.

Drowning in a river of tears.

(guitar cries )

Three more days till I leave this town.

And disappear without a trace.

A year from now maybe settle down.

Where no one knows my face.

I wish that I could hold you.

One more time to ease the pain.

But my times run out and I got to go.

Got to run away again.

Still I catch myself thinking.

One day I'll find my way back here.

You'll save me from drowning.

Drowning in a river.

Drowning in a river of tears.

Drowning in a river.

Feel like I'm drowning.

Drowning in a river.

Oh how long must it go on?

(guitar cries )

Drowning in a river.

Drowning in a river of tears.
