[Verse 1]
Under suburban skies
Where life is bleeding
Where concrete skies are grey
There's plenty of room for dreaming
I still keep coming here
Follow those traces
I travel back in time
Remember all those places
Feels like I never left
The house's still standing
Down by the river where
The dreams are never ending

[Chorus]
You find me
You find me
You find me by the river
You find me
You find me
You find me where the river flows

[Verse 2]
Under the silent moon
This industrial city
Is heartland even though
Life's been not that pretty
I still keep coming here
To that old river
To find my roots just where
The future lives forever

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
By the river where dreams will never die
By the river under suburban skies

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
By the river where dreams have never died
By the river I look through children's eyes

[Chorus][x2]

[Outro]
Where the river flows
Where the river flows
Where the river flows
