Lyrics
You can swim in this old river
It's been delivered
Since the factory shut down
And like the river I'm waiting
For resurrection
Since I lost your affection
And love left town
There'll be no more crying
There's no one left to blame
Love will come out standing
So roll that stone away
We were good
But we could have been better
And the best is what we're after
When it comes right down to love
You were always the strong one
Bright as the setting sun
Go shine somewhere else my love
Some brand new world (some brand new world)
There'll be no more crying
There's no one left to blame
Love will come out standing
So roll that stone away
And like that river I'm waiting
For resurrection
Since I lost your affection
And love left town (and love left town)
There'll be no more crying
There's no one left to blame
Love will come out standing
So roll that stone roll that stone
Roll that stone away
