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

Rushing like a spirit from a wineskin bag
