The River Songtext

von Heidi Spencer & the Rare Birds

Something scurried along the fence
And there's something else that can not rest
How unsettling is this cold
And we will do to keep warm
All the squirrels turn into mice
A different year a different vice

I dream of a river when i'm thirsty in my sleep
Mind over scattered papers to my knees
And they keep coming to finish what i started

In a year overgrown with don'ts and dew
I'll bury things here i will not move
I won't tell a soul will you
And you'll water this earth when i'm blue
I'll bury my heart here too
This frozen dirt needs tending to

I dream of a river when i'm thirsty in my sleep
Mind over scattered papers to my knees
And they keep coming to finish what i started

[Bridge: sweep, sweep my words for lines i haven't heard]
Clear the roads for people i haven't known
I am not your stepping stone

I dream of a river when i'm thirsty in my sleep
Mind over scattered papers to my knees
And they keep coming to finish what i started
