Same River Twice

[Verse 1]
Well hey there, honey
I ain't got no money
And every time I earn a dollar I'm losing two
And that's no good for you
No that's no good for anyone
But it's been a while
And by your smile I'm not the only one to say...

[Chorus]
Baby, I don't know
What was on my mind
What do you say that you and I
Stand in the same river for the second time
'Cause it's right today
Only you and I
Making waves and fighting tides
Standing in the same river for the second time

[Verse 2]
Well, the days get hotter
And my wounds, they holler
Like sinful people holler for a sign
But they're just too damn blind
Well, [I've been blind to see]
But I'd tear out my two eyes to make you believe
When I say...

[Chorus]
Baby, I don't know
What was on my mind
What do you say that you and I
Stand in the same river for the second time
'Cause it's right today
Only you and I
Making waves and fighting tides
Standing in the same river for the second time

[Bridge]
Well, my roots run shallow
And my branches hollow
And all the empty seeds I have sown
Since you stopped coming home

[Verse 3]
Now there's bells a-ringing
In my blood there's singing
Sure as spring will bring the things we thought had died
The things we ain't yet tried
Like standing in the same river twice
Because it's getting wider while we wait around for it all to dry
And I say...

[Chorus]
Baby, I don't know
What was on my mind
What do you say that you and I
Stand in the same river for the second time
'Cause it's right today
Only you and I
Making waves and fighting tides
Standing in the same river for the second time
Standing in the same river for the second time
