Far away
You seem so far away
Holding the hourglass
And it's pouring out so fast
Would you say
After these years and all this pain
That we could make a change
And you could meet me halfway
To lay it down right here
Meet me at the river
Where the water's clear

Love can save us
And love can free us
And what we cannot forgive
Love can

So I will pray
Sending my fragrance into the air
Bitter and sweet perfume
All of my life consumed
To be good enough
Is there a place where we'll see love
For what it was meant to be
Just a gift that's free
To lay it down right here
Meet me at the river
Where the water's clear

Love will catch us when we fall
And love will hear our faintest call
And dry these tears that stain my face
And lead us to a peaceful place
