Written by Amy Grant & Wayne Kirkpatrick



Who knew love would come walking thru my door

Turn a light on somewhere down inside

Give me a feeling I'd never had before

It was a long wait

It was just the wrong time



But I hope you'll hold me now

Somewhere within

And when you think about

What might have been



Chorus:

Cry a river

Flood the sea

Cry a river over me

Take the bitter

With the sweet

And cry a river over me



And how do you argue with a feeling in your bones

'Bout what is and what isn't meant to be

Some things you live with

And you never let it show

Like the pain I felt

The day I watched you leave



But I hope you'll think of me

When tender winds blow

Sit on the shores of love

And just let it go



(Repeat Chorus)

(Bridge)

(Repeat Chorus Twice
