We stand on the riverbed We stand as the water flows into the sea Slippery feet on stones No I won't let you fall Just hold on to me We cried this loss in wonder We hopedthat we could catch the silent thief We held each other stronger Your bones all wrapped in knots inside of me We stand on the riverbed We stand as the water flows Into the sea Slippery feet on stones No I won't let you fall Just hold on to me We stood as this love wandered We hoped that it could find his way back home She cried, she said "it's over" My feet they just kept slipping on the stones
