Lyrics

Crying for three days
now your eyes are red and tired
you can’t sleep for three days
now you’re waiting for tenderness to come
you’re waiting for tenderness to come
now you’re waiting for tenderness to come
With a red bird on the branch
and a cactus wren in the thorns
red bird on the branch
now your world’s coming undone
you’re waiting for tenderness to come
Can’t trust in this anymore
still waiting on the fence
so many times before
what keeps you here anymore
when things fall apart
now your world’s coming undone
now your world’s coming undone
Now you’re waiting for tenderness to come
Follow the River
Shadows are calling, and I’ve been down all day
The city’s asleep but my mind keeps running astray
I dream of you in the falling rain
Still have the wounds that the sun won’t ever heal
Surrounded by the emptiness of everything, everyone
I’m not giving up, I’m getting there
No I can’t give up yet, I’m getting there
Swallowed by ambition with a heart full of lies
‘till I followed the river and found my way back to you
