Lyrics

I hear you where the river bends
Calling softly through the rain again
Moon on water, silver flame
I go under when you say my name
I don't know where this leads
But the river moves through me
Take me to the river
Let the dark run deep
Wash away the sorrow
Carry me to sleep
Take me to the river
Where the old ghosts fade
I can feel it pulling
Taking me away
City sleeping, lights gone low
Still the water seems to know
Every secret, every scar
Every shadow of who we are
I don't know what it keeps
But I hear it in my dreams
Take me to the river
Let the dark run deep
Wash away the sorrow
Carry me to sleep
Take me to the river
Where the old ghosts fade
I can feel it pulling
Taking me away
Let me drift, let me fall
Let the water take it all
All my hunger, all my pain
Let the river speak my name
Take me to the river
Let the dark run deep
Wash away the sorrow
Carry me to sleep
Take me to the river
Where the old ghosts fade
I can feel it pulling
Taking me away
To the river
To the river
Let it take me
To the river
