lyrics

Down The River

Hold me
Hold me like a child
I am so tired of walking these streets alone
Won't you hold me for a while

Carry me
On your shoulders carry me high
Gravity is my sworn enemy
Won't you carry me for a while

Next time you see my lover
With her eyes underground
Tell her I chased the stars down the river...

Tell her this time I was floating with angels
Tell her this time I was light as the air
Tell her this time I was drunk on the stars
singing her name

Swallow me
Swallow me like a stone
I was burning when I fell to earth
won't you release me, release me
release me

Tell her this time I was floating with angels
Tell her this time I was light as the air
Tell her this time I was drunk on the stars
singing her name all the way to the sea...
