Shallow River

Red sky morning, lover's warning
Oh, I know that promise you wear, well it ain't for me
Shallow river, shining within her
Flood it all, drown the crops, but just please don't swallow me

Settle down (settle, settle, settle)
Hold your heart, be still, be still

May the whole sky fall
May it all come down
Wasted all for the title (oh!)
Wasted all for the crown (oh, oh!)

Keep your distance, make resistance
Stay the course when you falter and don't you think of me
Glowing ember, growing within her
Burn it all, raze the field, but just please don't swallow me

May the whole sky fall
May it all come down
Wasted all for the truth (oh!)
For the fool in her wedding gown (oh, oh!)

Let her leave my sight
Make her leave my mind
Bring it down on my head (oh!)
If these sins are mine (oh!)

Call it down on my head (oh!)
For these sins are mine (oh!)

Settle down (settle, settle, settle)
Hold your heart, be still, be still
Let her go (settle, settle, settle)
Hold your heart, be still, be still

Lovely lady, no one's baby
Keep your chains off the ground and don't you think of me
