Sing to the River - Jamie Lawson

Can’t sleep, so I’ll walk that half a mile

While no one’s awake to find you

There below the undertow

Of the river, I’ve seen you next to me

Hold my breath, in the quiet too

Find the words and sing them out for you

'Til all that’s left are the birds and me

It’s 3am and I can barely breathe

I’ll sing to the river, sing to the river

And let you know how I miss you so

I’ll sing to the river, sing to the river

And let you know, I miss you so

The still of those nights

The calm of the lights reflecting on all that is gone

The darkening sky, the moon and the eye

Waiting for a sign, anything at all

Why don’t we talk?

I can hear you now

And it breaks me still why we couldn’t work out

A way to say it’s all okay

I love you so and always will in every way

I’ll sing to the river, sing to the river

And let you know how I miss you so

I’ll sing to the river, sing to the river

And let you know, I miss you so

This is where we let you go

Into the world, into the air, into the water

Let it take you everywhere

You are everywhere, everywhere

I’ll sing to the river, sing to the river

And let you know how I miss you so

I’ll sing to the river, sing to the river

And let you know, I miss you so

I’ll sing to the river, sing to the river

I miss you so

I’ll sing to the river

Sing to the river

I miss you so
