Featuring: Elton John
Songwriter: Bernie Taupin Elton John
The weather man, he looks confused
Shakes his fist at the sky like you used to do
But you don't remember things like that, do you?
The balance was uneven but I'm breaking through
Slow rivers run cold
Shallow waters never sank so low
I thought I'd drown and you'd never know
You're a slow river and you run so cold
The winter here don't believe in God
The bitter wind just bites through me like a wild dog
I still see in your eyes tonight like headlights through the fog
But one foot in your door, oh that's all I ever got
Slow rivers run cold
Shallow waters never sank so low
I thought I'd drown and you'd never know
You're a slow river and you run so cold
Chances are you'll reappear
Swim my way in a flood of tears
No place to hide your conscience
So you're a sinking ship with no place to go
Slow rivers run cold
Shallow waters never sank so low
I thought I'd drown and you'd never know
You're a slow river and you run so cold
Shakes his fist at the sky like you used to do
But you don't remember things like that, do you?
The balance was uneven but I'm breaking through
Slow rivers run cold
Shallow waters never sank so low
I thought I'd drown and you'd never know
You're a slow river and you run so cold
The winter here don't believe in God
The bitter wind just bites through me like a wild dog
I still see in your eyes tonight like headlights through the fog
But one foot in your door, oh that's all I ever got
Slow rivers run cold
Shallow waters never sank so low
I thought I'd drown and you'd never know
You're a slow river and you run so cold
Chances are you'll reappear
Swim my way in a flood of tears
No place to hide your conscience
So you're a sinking ship with no place to go
Slow rivers run cold
Shallow waters never sank so low
I thought I'd drown and you'd never know
You're a slow river and you run so cold
