Run River
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Run, run river
Carry me to my home in the ocean
Carry me away
I know I have a home
Somewhere far
And I'll move like the stars
That make you feel like you got friends
Stars will make you feel like you got friends
Follow the empty valley
Past the hill
To the marshes of the estuary
Come in peaceful river
In the light of the moon with the river
I do run in the hope that one day I will die
Beneath the ocean
And at this river we'll forever run
