"From The River" lyrics

"From The River"

Friendships yet to be set
Will billow in your sails every day
Love that will take your breath
Just to be winter frail
Is the only way

Take me over the hills
In the din of a dawn chorus
Double the farthest that I've ever run
Bring us home something bright from the river
Bring us home something beautiful, son
Fall hopelessly time after time
But pay no mind to circling birds

If and when you cry
Feed it to the flowers you'll find along the way
Along the way

Funny wise and kind
Use those superpowers
Every day
Every day

Take me over the hills
In the din of a dawn chorus
Double the farthest that I've ever run
Bring us home something bright from the river
Bring us home something beautiful, son

Bring us home something bright from the river
Bring us home something beautiful, son
Fall hopelessly time after time
But pay no mind to circling birds

Bring us home something bright from the river
From the river
From the river
From the river

Bring us home something bright from the river
From the river
From the river
From the river

Bring us home something bright from the river
From the river
From the river
From the river

Bring us home something bright from the river
From the river
From the river
From the river

Bring us home something bright from the river
From the river
From the river
From the river
