It's three miles to the river that would carry me away,

and two miles to the dusty street that I saw you on today,

It's four miles to my lonely room where I'm gonna hide my face,

and about 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 or 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

In three more days, 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

And you'll save me from drowning,

Drowning in a river, drowning in a river of tears

Drowning in a river, Feels like I'm drowning,

Drowning in a river

Lord how long must this go on?

Drowning in a river, drowning in a river of tears.

{eot}

It's three miles to the river that would carry me away,
and two miles to the dusty street that I saw you on today,
It's four miles to my lonely room where I'm gonna hide my face,
and about 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 or 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

In three more days, 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
And you'll save me from drowning,
Drowning in a river, drowning in a river of tears
Drowning in a river, Feels like I'm drowning,
Drowning in a river
Lord how long must this go on?

Drowning in a river, drowning in a river of tears.
