Took a friend I found across some blood red river   Never did find my way home in time to forgive her   Why must people always want what they can't have?   Why must people always grab what they'd never grasp?   How do we get so far?   How do we move so fast away   From the lilac-lillied lake   I'm sure we used to stay   Is it only a dream away?      Took a raft I found across some blood red river   Never did find my home in time for my dinner   Why must people always want what they never had?   Why is it a crime to miss a part of you that's bled?   How do we get so far?   How do we move so fast away   From the lilac-lillied lake   I'm sure we used to stay   Is it only a dream away?   Only a dream away      Lost a friend I found down some blood red river   Never did find my way home in time to forget her   Why must people always want what they can't have?   Why must people always take, but forget to ask?   How do we get so far?   How do we move so fast away   From the lilac-lillied lake   Where I'm told we used to play   Is it only a dream away?   Only a dream, only a dream away   Away
