Check out the river with its life and meaning
Fog is coming, night is near and I'm living low by the light of the earth
Once you said we'd meet again some summers day
For the record, you've been with me anyway
I'm feeling well living off the earth
All that summer the rain pouring on my roof
In the night call out to me
Leave the city, stop your running, here is a way out past the bridges, stand and be quiet, watch the farmer live
World around him, it buzzes
Here is a trail out of the city, go
Check out the river in the hazy clearing
Fog is lifting, day is nearing
I turn pages at night by the light of the moon
Once you said we'd meet again and talk about
How time changed us, how life would mellow us out
Cats are sages, every traveler knows
All last summer the rain pouring on our roof
In the night calling out to me
Leave the city, stop your running, here is a way out past the bridges, stand and be patient, watch the farmer live
World around him, it buzzes
Here is a trail out of the city, go
