Eric Clapton - River Of Tears lyrics

It's three miles to the river<br>That would carry me away,<br>And two miles to the dusty street<br>That I saw you on today.<br><br>It's four miles to my lonely room<br>Where I will hide my face,<br>And about half a mile to the downtown bar<br>That I ran from in disgrace.<br><br>Lord, how long have I got to keep on running,<br>Seven hours, seven days or seven years? <br>All I know is, since you've been gone<br>I feel like I'm drowning in a river,<br>Drowning in a river of tears.<br>Drowning in a river.<br>Feel like I'm drowning,<br>Drowning in a river.<br><br>In three more days, I'll leave this town<br>And disappear without a trace.<br>A year from now, maybe settle down<br>Where no one knows my face.<br><br>I wish that I could hold you<br>One more time to ease the pain,<br>But my time's run out and I got to go,<br>Got to run away again.<br><br>Still I catch myself thinking,<br>One day I'll find my way back here.<br>You'll save me from drowning,<br>Drowning in a river,<br>Drowning in a river of tears.<br>Drowning in a river.<br>Feels like I'm drowning,<br>Drowning in the river.<br>Lord, how long must this go on? <br><br>Drowning in a river,<br>Drowning in a river of tears.
