There she stands in the rain In the neon light Cast away on the oceans Of the night Left out in the cold Of the grey morning light Another day of heartache Right before her eyes And she cries Soaked up by the crowd Just a face in time Im turning back like a stranger To this life of mine But still her eyes They are haunting my mind Is this the life i wanted A dont care paradise And the rivers of love so close Such a little step away Are we really just too blind to see Do we run through this life blindfold Turning circles in the dark never free Free Just a face in the crowd That youve seen before Reaching out through the darkness We dont see no more But the loneliness around us That weve learned to ignore Its waiting in the backyard Knocking at our door And the rivers of love so close Such a little step away Are we really just too blind to see Do we run through this life blindfold As were searching for the light To be free And the rivers of love so close Such a little step away Are we really just too blind to see Do we run through this life blindfold As were searching for the light To be free Rivers of love flow through my heart Open up these eyes Show me how were meant to be Rivers of love tear these chains apart Set my soul on fire set me free
