Sometimes a River - The String Cheese Incident

I was cleaning the ash from the fire

And putting the party away

Helping out all of my lost friends

To see the light of day

I’m feeling the wind through the window

Sometimes you crash through the wall

Seems like it comes out of nowhere

There’s no warning at all

Sometimes a river, sometimes a river runs high

Sometimes a river, sometimes a river runs dry

I was making my way through a movie

And finding it hard to decide

Sometimes it comes without warning

It turns me over inside

I’m making a stab in the darkness

But you’re wearing a hole in the floor

Suddenly everything changes

You’re not the same as before

Sometimes a river, sometimes a river runs high

Sometimes a river, sometimes a river runs dry

You danced in my dream in a white dress

I watched from the top of the stairs

I woke up looking to find you

But you were not there

Seventeen hours of driving

But that’s not a surprise

The world’s all heavy with traffic

We never were good at goodbyes

No we never were no good at goodbyes
