Washed Away by the River

No last goodbye

Shadows pass by

Through the night

Your smile in sight

I swore my dreams still stayed

Called it strength, but I was afraid

The wind calls your name

A spark lights the flame

Silent prayers guide me

Through the dark to see

Faded dreams flow to the river

Now I rise, no more a drifter

Stories we dreamed would come true

Still remain in the light

Now I know you can shine so bright

I’ll believe for all time

Thought tears were fear

You made that clear

Each cry a fight

Turning pain to light

Though far away

I can guide your way

When I learned that truth

I could face the day

Flowers on your road

Every step a lighter load

Nameless wish I keep

Fades into the endless sky

I’m no longer by your side

Still my prayer will cross the river

Leave the hurt behind

Step through doors you’re meant to find

Though I’m gone, my hope will stay

Find your joy, don’t lose your way

Past the door that waits for you

Is the life you’re walking to

Faded dreams flow to the river

Now I rise, no more a drifter

Stories we dreamed would come true

Still remain in the light

So you, So you, So you're shining bright

Shattered dreams fade away

River’s flow will wash them away

Changing into gold

Stories yet untold

Every tale you weave

Every dream you breathe

Still I believe ...
