Jon Bon Jovi – River Runs Dry lyrics

Didn't want to sayit in this way
I didn't want to see the day I'd say these words to you
I did'nt want have to explain
Sometimes heros have to lose
It's killing me to see you cry
Would it make it any better if I told you I did it all for you

It was just another roll of the dice
Just another star in the sky
Try to touch it but i couldn't fly
Chorus:
Everybody knows the promise of the river
Everybody goes with the fire in their eyes
Everybody knows you can lead a horse to water
But there's nothing anybody can do
Rivers run dry

Gonna have to go away
I always told you that a man has got to face his own mistakes
Sometimes you get a lucky break
Sometimes your winning streak will stay
Sometimes you got to pay

Chorus

Oh, I remember when the rivers ran high
Oh, we can make it to the other side
Make it to the other side

Everybody knows the promise of the river
Everybody goes with the fire in their eyes
Everybody knows you can lead a horse to water
But there's nothing anybody can do
Oh, there's nothing anybody can do
There's nothing anybody can do
When the rivers run dry
When the rivers run dry
