Another sleepless night She's out at first light And there's no one here Who can tell a wrong from right And her broken man Will never understand Just like wind blows Seems like pain flows through his hands So she goes down to the river With a bottle and a bag of bones Sinks her soul in the water like a stone And now he's never gonna touch her You can't break what's done been broke And there's no light in the river No way home Wheels on the road Gonna roll for sure 'Cause the woman he loves Just want him back at home And when the pain is gone Well a man can move on There's a million ways to stay Where you best belong So he goes down to the river With a bottle and a bag of bones Sinks his soul in the water like a stone And now he's never gonna find her She disappeared like a curl of smoke And there's no light in the river No way home This world's been breaking us But there's gotta be something better Waiting for us A road that's not strewn with stones The water that washes us buries us And the river that drowns us carries us But I hope that I don't die alone No When we go Down to the river Down to the river We go down to the river All alone We go Down to the river Down to the river We go down to the river All alone Yeah we go down to the river With a bottle and a bag of bones Sink our souls in the water like a stone And now it's never gonna touch us We kinda bent but we ain't been broke And there's no light in the river No way home Yeah there's no light in the river No way home Yeah there's no light in the river No way home So we go Down to the river Down to the river We go down to the river All alone
