BLEACHERS
"Like A River Runs"
(Jack Antonoff / John Hill)

I woke up thinking you were still here
My hands shaking with regret
I've held this dream for such a long long time

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
And now I want to wake up
To the rhythm of a wild, to the rhythm of a wild heart
That beats, that beats like a rolling drum

I saw you standing on the corner
I saw you standing on your own
And I get the feeling that it's, it's all a dream

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
And I wanna get up
To the rhythm of a wild, to the rhythm of a wild heart
That beats, that beats like a drum

[Chorus 1:]
When I fall asleep I can see your face
What I lost in you I will not replace
And I could run away, I could let them down
But I will remember your light

Your light it follows me in darkness
I'm trying hard but I can't win
And I've played the victim for a long long time

[Pre-Chorus 3]
And I wanna grow up
From the rhythm a young, from the rhythm of a younger heart
It leads just like a river runs

Tonight I sit over the parkway
The summer's gone and I'm alone
And I get the feeling that you're somewhere close

[Pre-Chorus 4]
And I wanna get up
To the rhythm of your wild, to the rhythm of your wild heart
It beats, been beating since you've gone

[Chorus 2:]
When I fall asleep I can see your face
What I lost in you I will not replace
And I could run away, I could let them down
But I will remember your light

[Chorus 3:]
When I fall asleep I can see your face (I don't walk alone)
What I lost in you I will not replace (No, I don't walk alone)
And I could run away, I could let them down
And I know you're gone but still
I will remember your light

[Bridge:]
(I will remember)
(I will remember)
(I will remember)
(I will remember)

[Outro:]
And if you see me in the darkness
I hope you know I'm not alone
I carry you with every breath I take
And I won't let up, I won't let up, oh
Until the wind is gone
