Sionann (Shannon) [20th Anniversary]

She’s running wild, running free

He is cryin’ out her name

Catchin’ all her dreams as they’re driftin’ astray

River hold her in your faithful arms

As you sail her away toward the sea

Sionann dances through the wind

Sionann how she curves and gently bends

I heard her singing, did you hear her laugh again?

Sionann

She waltzes with the moon

She rises with the sun

How she washes over him

And he says it feels like love

River hold her in your faithful arms

As you sail her so far away from me

Sionann dances through the wind

Sionann how she curves and gently bends

I heard her singing, did you hear her laugh again?

Sionann

He moves softly like the breeze

Below a vail of quiet rain

He feels her whisper passin’ by

Above her river grave

Sionann are you dancing with the wind?

Sionann with your curves and gentle bends

He stands beside her and he lets her water in

Sionann, Sionann, Sionann

River carry him
