River

I was a wanderer
A luster of such space
If hills could talk they would
Tell me of their peace

On these banks of clay
Carved by waves and sunny days
I sat beside you
It was all I needed, all I knew

Lead me down to beside the river
Warm my bones, scare the ghosts in the light
I will, I will, I will go down to the river
Rid my lungs of these heavy sighs

As night and darkness fell
Came thicker masks and thicker shells
On shoulders giants I rode
Down to the waters the free have known

On these banks of clay
Carved by waves and sunny days
I sat beside you
It was all I needed, all I knew

Lead me down to beside the river
Warm my bones, scare the ghosts in the light
I will, I will, I will go down to the river
Rid my lungs of these heavy sighs

I feel these waters curling over
Curling over, curling over me
I watched the shoreline and faded out
Faded out, faded out to sea

Lead me down to beside the river
Warm my bones, scare the ghosts in the light
I will, I will, I will go down to the river
Rid these lungs of these heavy sighs
