Where the River Used to Run
Where the River Used to Run is a soft, wistful folk track that explores lingering memories of past love, using the imagery of a dried-up old riverbed to represent faded shared moments. The stripped-back, introspective song features gentle, warm production and heartfelt lyrical storytelling about how old feelings persist even as time and landscapes change.

I made this song quite a while ago. Recently, @cocoayoc made this [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkT2TbSZ-A0) from it. The image attached to my song is his start image. The song is super short, but I love it.
