where the river runs black i take the schoolbooks from your pack plastics, wire and your kiss the breath of eternity on your lips
in the crowded marketplace i drift from face to face i hold my breath and close my eyes i hold my breath and close my eyes and i wait for paradise and i wait for paradise
the virginia hills have gone to brown another day another sun going down i visit you in another dream i visit you in another dream i reach and feel your hair your smell lingers in the air i brush your cheek with my fingertips i taste the void upon your lips and i wait for paradise and i wait for paradise
i search for you on the other side where the river runs clean and wide up to my heart the waters rise up to my heart the waters rise i sink `neath the water cool and clear drifting down, i disappear i see you on the other side i search for the peace in your eyes but theyre as empty as paradise theyre as empty as paradise
i break above the waves i feel the sun upon my face
