Lyrics - Ted's River Song by Fighting Gravity

(
Lyrics,
Music:
Peterson,
Triano)
You, when
I close my eyes, open my eyes, realize,
I think
I would obligeand if
I tied my tongue together, smelled a rose and fell right on mynose
Would it be the same, should
I know your name
Could you stay for just a while?
You, when
I float downstream, buy the dream and touch the stream,
Ithink it would redeemand if we drift away together filled our souls and lost all we control
Would it disagree, should
I wish to be?
Could you guarantee a while(
Refrain)
And help me down from this rope
I'm walkingsuch a long, long way to falland if
I see the edge of the morning
I got no expectations at allso dance with me tonight
Look at the sky, don't lie, just, just tell me now if
I should saygoodbye
Fortunate child, so wild, like the river washes sinners reconciled
Would it fall apart, should
I close my heart?
Could you hold me for a while(
Refrain)
We're alive...we are
I can see all around me
You, when
I close my eyes, open my eyes, realize,
I think we can surmiseand if
I'm gone too long, this song is all
I've got to right this wrong
Would it end the same, should
I save your name?
Would you laugh with me a while(
Refrain)
Like the breath of the night we all slip away
