Eternity

[Intro] | | | | | | | | | | [Verse] I was born on the banks of Eternity A page of the history it teaches Not a care lived my life like a hurricane Leaving everything along the way in pieces [Pre-Chorus] Some may have cheered some may have wondered If I am flesh if I am stone Thoughts of you tear through me like thunder You are the light that has led me back home [Chorus] Take me to the river baby Wash away the lies I’ve got no reputation living in your eyes Take me to Eternity Let me bury this disgu-ise [Verse] A Southern boy has it harder sometimes It’s like you were climbing a razor You were there when my dreams had all turned to dust And the man in the mirror was a stranger [Pre-Chorus] Look at me now a soulless survivor No mask can hide the man that I’ve made You ease my pain. You make it silent Slowly I feel it beginning to fade [Chorus] Take me to the river baby Wash away the lies I’ve got no reputation living in your eyes Take me to Eternity Let me bury this disgu-ise [Bridge] I want to feel it Rushing over me into the tide I want to taste it Every moment ’til the end of my life   [Solo] | | | | | | | | | [Pre-Chorus] I have laid still adrift in your memory Hoping your faith would erase all the years Maybe some time maybe some magic Maybe your love will make everything clear [Chorus] Take me to the river baby Wash away the lies I’ve got no reputation living in your eyes Take me to Eternity Let me bury this disgu-ise Take me to the river baby Wash away the lies There are no expectations hiding in your eyes Take me to Eternity Let me bury this . . . disguise [Ending] | | | | | | |
