Met her in the streetlights amber glow She taught me things Id never known Youve thought that she was blind To give me love so true and kind Lifes a rolling tide So one day I left her side And the heart that I couldnt give her Became another rock in the river She put her pan beneath the cold To sift through sand and rock for gold A love that once held such a shine Shed search her whole life for that mine Lifes a rolling tide So one day I left her side And the heart that I couldnt give her Became another rock in the river Left a card there by the stove No words she didnt already know One may find but not deserve The love I could not frame in words Lifes a rolling tide So one day I left her side And the heart that I couldnt give her Became another rock in the river
