Sufjan Stevens - The Greatest Gift

The Hidden River of My Life

Two, three, four

Suppose the world was not informed
By real estate or power lines
The hidden river of my life
Pursued by love

The whispering stone, the valley ford
The candy corn, the spirit finds
Abuse has left me on my side
A single stone

I'm a walker, I'm a dreamer
Treehouse greeter, Pentecostal preacher
I'm a walker, yeah, I'm a schemer
Composed preacher, pioneer believer

A small betrayal, a simple thought
To shrug it off, unoccupied
The precious lake, the riverbed
The rising tide

The sad surprise, the day it feds
The flooding falls, the cliff or chime
Awake my soul, awake my heart
And you will find

I'm a walker, I'm a drinker
Safeway shopper, thunder a greeter
I'm a biker, yeah, I'm a beaver
Wet foot walker, trailblazing fever

I'm a lover, yeah, I'm a weeper
Subaru driver, satellite receiver
I'm a trucker, yeah, I'm a chaser
Chasing for a rider, I'm a Nike racer

Gloria in Excalibur
