Richard Marx - Eternity lyrics

I was born on the banks of eternity<br>A page of the history it teaches<br>Not a care, lived my life like a hurricane<br>Leaving everything along the way in pieces<br><br>Some may have cheered, some may have wondered<br>If I am flesh, if I am stone<br>Thoughts of you tear through me like thunder<br>You are the light that has led me back home<br><br>Take me to the river, baby<br>Wash away the lies<br>I've got no reputation living in your eyes<br>Take me to eternity<br>Let me bury this disguise<br><br>A southern boy has it harder sometimes<br>It's like you were climbing a razor<br>You were there when my dreams had all turned to dust<br>And the man in the mirror was a stranger<br><br>Look at me now, a soulless survivor<br>No mask can hide the man that I've made<br>You ease my pain<br>Your make it silent<br>Slowly I feel it beginning to fade<br><br>I want to feel it<br>Rushing over me into the tide<br>I want to taste it<br>Every moment 'til the end of my life<br><br>I have laid still, adrift in you memory<br>Hoping your faith would erase all the years<br>Maybe some time, maybe some magic<br>Maybe your love will make everything clear<br><br>Take me to the river, baby<br>Wash away the lies<br>I've got no reputation living in your eyes<br>Take me to eternity<br>Let me bury this disguise<br><br>Take me to the river, baby<br>Wash away the lies<br>There are no expectations hiding in your eyes<br>Take me to eternity<br>And let me bury this disguise
