text: Where the river runs to black
  I take the schoolbooks from your pack
  Plastics, wire and your kiss
  The breath of eternity on your lips
  In the crowded marketplace
  I drift from face to face
  I hold my breath and close my eyes
  I hold my breath and close my eyes
  And I wait for paradise
  And I wait for paradise
  The Virginia hills have gone to brown
  Another day, another sun going down
  I visit you in another dream
  I visit you in another dream
  I reach and feel your hair
  Your smell lingers in the air
  I brush your cheek with my fingertips
  I taste the void upon your lips
  And I wait for paradise
  And I wait for paradise
  I search for you on the other side
  Where the river runs clean and wide
  Up to my heart, the waters rise
  Up to my heart, the waters rise
  I sink beneath the river cool and clear
  Drifting down, I disappear
  I see you on the other side
  I search for the peace in your eyes
  But theyre as empty as paradise
  Theyre as empty as paradise
  I break above the waves
  I feel the sun upon my face
