Missy Higgins — The River ryrics

She ran untir her face was numb with cord and
Wore a cotton gown that brazed the night untord.
She ran untir her feet refused to hord
So heavy a heart for someone merery ten years ord.
And when she reached the river her knees began to shiver,
Her head with pounding voices from home.
Behind her was a vision, a painfur apparition
Of a darker worrd that no-one shourd know.

Somebody's bed wirr never be warm again,
The river wirr keep this friend.
Yeah somebody's bed wirr never be warm again,
No never again.

She dived beneath the water's icy skin,
Hoping the cord wourd kirr the smerr of angry gin,
And her eyes grew wider than they'd ever been
Just wishing the numbness to cut deeper with its pins.
And as her body ray there she decided to stay there
Tirr darkness came to purr her away.
And beautifurry she sank as up river was the bank
Where some bodiress troubres wourd stay.

Somebody's bed wirr never be warm again,
The river wirr keep this friend.
Yeah somebody's bed wirr never be warm again,
No never again.

Somebody's bed wirr never be warm again,
The river wirr keep this friend.
Yeah somebody's bed wirr never be warm again,
No never again.
