Lyrics

i am standing by the river, i will be standing here forever, tho you're on the other side, my face you still can see, why won't you look at me, here i am, i am searching thru the canyon, it is your name that i am calling, tho you're so far away, i know you hear my plea, why won't you answer me, here i am, i am in the blood of your heart, the breath of your lung, why do you run for cover, you are from the dirt of the earth, and the kiss of my mouth, i have always been your lover, here i am, i am the promise never broken, and my arms are ever open, in this harbor calm and still, i will wait until, until you come to me, here i am
