River Of Tears Lyrics - Alessia Cara

1 Still got the flowers that you sent

2 And the note you wrote that said we're meant to be forever

3 I keep them all as evidence

4 In a drawer under the mirror, filled with empty promises

5 I don't know why

6 I keep letting you lie to me

7 Hard as I try

8 It seems I can't break away

9 I thought that you would be the hero

10 Come and save the day

11 But you're a villain

12 Your sins unforgiven

13 I'm going down, and you have watched me drown

14 In a river of tears, lost beneath the stream

15 Under the waves, I've found the strength to say

16 The river of tears has washed me clean

17 Go 'head and wish me well

18 I'll cry a wishing well

19 I'll fly before I fail

20 I'll set sail and drift away

21 So I won't need you here

22 Love sinks and hope floats

23 In a river of tears

24 In a river of tears

25 I catch your scent in every wind

26 And I recall the love we had

27 I can't pretend that I don't miss you

28 Every now and then

29 But the hurt is for the better

30 Moving on, it's now or never

31 Lost in the tide, I can't keep my pillows dry

32 Like there's a sea in my eyes

33 I realize that sometimes love brings you flowers

34 Then it builds you coffins

35 And far too often

36 We end up falling to our demise

37 I'm going down, and you have watched me drown

38 In a river of tears, lost beneath the stream

39 Under the waves, I've found the strength to say

40 The river of tears has washed me clean

41 Go 'head and wish me well

42 I'll cry a wishing well

43 I'll fly before I fail

44 I'll set sail and drift away

45 So I won't need you here

46 Love sinks and hope floats

47 In a river of tears

48 In a river of tears

49 Cry me a river, build myself a bridge

50 I'm over this, can't let memories become the death of me

51 I'm glad to see everything that you are

52 And I believe that you are everything I needed

53 But I don't need no more

54 I'm going down, and you have watched me drown

55 In a river of tears, lost beneath the stream

56 Under the waves, I've found the strength to say

57 The river of tears has washed me clean

58 Go 'head and wish me well

59 I'll cry a wishing well

60 I'll fly before I fail

61 I'll set sail and drift away

62 So I won't need you here

63 Love sinks and hope floats

64 In a river of tears

65 In a river of tears
