Rea Garvey Riverside song lyrics

She feels her heart still beating

She can't afford to go

She has to stay here

Reaching for the one she loves so

She hears his footsteps calling

She speaks with her eyes

Take me down to the riverside

She sees her love and children

She takes them by the hand

Too young to let her go

Too young to understand

She struggles as she's breathing

The distant starts to grow

Take me once more to the riverside

And I won't go they lead me

I'll stay here by your side

I won't go

And if they try to persuade me

I'll fight with every inch of my body and soul

The tears are coming closer

The darkness starts to crowd

Inside her soul is screaming

But she can't let it out

She feels her grip is loosening

She fears the bitter end

She fights for her life she loves with every ounce of strength

Take me once more to the riverside

She says

'Cause I won't go where they lead me

I'll stay here by your side

I won't go

And if they try to persuade me

I'll fight with every inch of my body and soul

I won't go

He wispers into her her ear

Don't forget

The life that we gave

The life that we live

The life that we love

Is not over yet

And I can't go where they lead you

Please stay here by my side

I can't let you go where they lead you

Let's stay here down by the riverside
