"Santiam" Lyrics

Every word comes out an understatement
Everyone tries to find a way to love
Every time that I close my eyes
I drift away like the Santiam river

Every heart goes back to its home
And it's strange to need You
As a spring love trades for June bugs
Is it vain to leave You again?

Any script written could not contain You
True love's not like it's played in a movie
When I close my eyes, I feel You with me
'Cause You bled for a love that is holy

Every heart goes back to its home
And it's strange to need You
As a spring love trades for June bugs
Is it vain to leave You again?

There the river runs beneath
There the river runs beneath
And as it runs, so I will leave
There the river runs beneath

There the river runs beneath
(To need you)
There the river runs beneath
(To leave you )

And as it runs, so I will leave
(To need you)
There the river runs beneath
(To leave you)
