Run River Run

Run river run Mother's calling heavy the sun She's tired from the storm, which is from the norm Standing at the gate, so quiet, unafraid But one has come One has come Run river run I hear your father's gun He's wary from the road, the wolves and the crows Kept him at the gates with hands full of praise But one has come One has one Rushing like a spirit from a wineskin bag Settled by your sister like it's never going back Mother's crying out with a different kind of sadness Sam can't shoot between a promise and a habit Run river run Out of dreams, into the sun Wake river wake There's fire coursing through your blood There's gold in your hair, the silver line is I know that they're scared, oh they're rushing to the wind But you won't let 'em in No, you won't let 'em in Rushing like a spirit from a wineskin bag Settle by your sister with your heart in her hands There's love in your words, she'll learn to sew I hear her laughing, and it sounds It sounds like Home It sounds like Home It sounds like Home It sounds like Home Rushing like a spirit from a wineskin bag Settle by your sister with your heart in her hands There's love in your words, she'll learn to sew I hear her laughing, and it sounds It sounds like Home It sounds like Home It sounds like Home It sounds like Home --- Run River Run - Run River North
