What good does it do to hold onto

The anger deep in your heart

You're the only one that it's hurting

You're the one that it's tearing apart

I'm sorry that he broke your heart girl

But it's time to let it go



Sometimes love is a river of tears so pick up the oars and row



He shattered your expectations

He broke all his promises too

With his little white lies he looked in your eyes

And made you believe they were true

Aw but this ain't the final curtain

Girl it's time to get on the show



Sometimes love is a river of tears so pick up the oars and row



It's been far too long now

Since I've seen your smile

Your bitterness don't look good on you

And self pity just ain't your style

Sooner or later you know you've got to play the card you've drawn

It's all up to you

You can stay blue or you can move on



Ain't it hard when you discover

Things ain't what you thought they would be

When all of your best played plans

Hit the wall of reality

Still all in all it's a good life

But it sure can be painful I know



Sometimes love is a river of tears pick up the oars and row

Sometimes love is a river of tears so pick up the oars and go
