Mystic River Lyrics

I can't believe it's true I finally got you here
I've been waiting for this moment for some years
Ive been torn down enough to know
Everyone goes through this door
Just before their lives explode
Come in here with a heavy loadWalking down the road watching the day begin
Radio song is playing off in a distant wind
But you can feel it it's a gentle love
Coming out soft from the windows above
Just when you have had enough
Here comes the world youve been dreaming ofOh my my the Mystic River
She takes your heart
And you will forgive her
Lay me down beside the water
I look across at the sons and daughtersSun comes up each day to chase away the moon
Even the stars at night they fade away too soon
You cant do much about the trouble life brings
Cut all the lines so the phones dont ring

But stay here once from spring to spring
Watching the ice melt the mornings singOh my my the Mystic River
She takes your heart
And you will forgive her
Lay me down beside the water
I miss my sons I miss my daughter nowTheres a tree that grows out in the burning sands
Never a drop of rain that nobody understands
You can push me I dont mind
Leave me out here and Ill be fine
Cause everyones gonna have their time
Up or down honey you decideOh my my the Mystic River
She takes your heart
And you will forgive her
Lay me down beside the water
I miss my sons I miss my daughter now
