Come back river to the place you ran
The sun's going down and the time's at hand
Come back river to the place you flowed
And hold me close in your icy robes
Run back now
Make your way
Oh the path'll be different than it was
Yesterday
Come back river to the place you left
I lay on a stone all alone and wept
Come back river with my tears that fall
I gave you all away till there was nothing left at all
Run back now
Make your way
Oh the path'll be different than it was
Yesterday
Come back river my bed's gone dry
Rub me till I shimmer I reflect the sky
Come back river be the flesh of my bones
And glisten in my soul till I can sing my own way home
Run back now
Make your way
Oh the path'll be different than it was
Yesterday
Yesterday
Yesterday
Yesterday
