Just Like A River Does - Birdy

I always cry on the train back home

Watchin' the world outside I used to know

As soon as I get there

I have to go

And the years go by, I don’t even know where I’ve been

In the blink of an eye, could’ve all been a dream

Will I ever find somewhere

To call my own?

As soon as I get there

I have to go

We’re two hands meant to shape the land

Just like a river does, just like a river does

And now the day breaks and I have to go away

Run like a river does, on and on like a river does

And the landscape has changed since last I was here

Some people stay and some disappear

But I’ll always remember

This part of me

And I can’t help but wonder

How I ever leave

We’re two hands meant to shape the land

Just like a river does, just like a river does

Now the day breaks and I have to go away

Run like a river does, on and on like a river does

Oh, oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh

Ooh, ooh-ooh, woo

We’re two hands meant to shape the land

Just like a river does, just like a river does

Now the day breaks and I have to go away

Run like a river does, on and on like a river does

So I bottle the sound of the wind in the trees

Follow the salt in the air down to the sea

Just like a river does

Just like a river does
