Eternity

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