Down 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.

Finally we have seen some things

Some awfully nice

Some dreadfully bad

But we will sing

Wash the blood off our knees

Cause our love breaks through rough seas our ship will sail

And i don't understand how this world would work

Cause time will tell us nothing

I'll take a chance on something

Feeling old, feelings this time take you

Down river, down river, down river, down

Walk these stairs, put the pieces back together

Go don't stop, go don't stop, go don't stop now, go

Finally, we have seen some things

But bells in your hallways

Don't move you in the right place

So we will sing, cast our hopes out to sea

Though our hearts break, through violent winds our ship will sail

And i don't understand how this world would work

Cause time will tell us nothing

I'll take a chance on something

Feeling old, feelings this time take you

Down river, down river, down river, down

Walk these stairs, put the pieces back together

Go don't stop, go don't stop, go don't stop

Go don't stop now, go....
