lyrics

I went down to the Russia Brook and I thought I saw the ghost
Of the person that I try to be when I'm missing you the most.
I just the water, stood on the bridge, and looked over the flow
Of the Russia Brook, and just like the stream, I got a ways to go.

And I've been waiting on the day when
I walk through that gate and
I see the world that we both know.
But it's cold outside
And I'm missing you tonight
But I know the Russia Brook still flow.

I went down to the Russia Brook and tried talking to God.
He shrugged his shoulders and looked away, said "Best be moving on."
I thought about how everything is nothing when it's gone
But you and I make something that remains when we move on.

I went down to the Russia Brook with you that afternoon.
We made love under the trees when the forest was in bloom.
And I knew right then I found it, and I swore you knew it too.
It was in the way the water ran along as the wind blew.
