I Would
I'd say that to live would be to die exiled
But I'd say that if only it'd win back her smile
And I'd lay down beside the stream and hang my harp awhile
But the river to the sea sings won't you come to me
I'd drown you in my garden eyes and gore the flowers
But I'd rouse you from the depths and rain the cruelest showers
And we'd lay claim to the throne and bed upon the slouching towers
Died an emptied mother's theme within us boys who'd come to be
And now I see you smile
Your dull love casts me o'er
As colors flood to grace the sky
I see you Carolina
In your freedom waving cross the shore
To the gospel sung along unsure
So I'll ask for your charity when you hear me sing
For I've masked all my hopes in reels of twining schemes
But I pray that my faith would reconnect the winding streams
And deliver to the sea all that's yet to come to me
But I'd say that if only it'd win back her smile
And I'd lay down beside the stream and hang my harp awhile
But the river to the sea sings won't you come to me
I'd drown you in my garden eyes and gore the flowers
But I'd rouse you from the depths and rain the cruelest showers
And we'd lay claim to the throne and bed upon the slouching towers
Died an emptied mother's theme within us boys who'd come to be
And now I see you smile
Your dull love casts me o'er
As colors flood to grace the sky
I see you Carolina
In your freedom waving cross the shore
To the gospel sung along unsure
So I'll ask for your charity when you hear me sing
For I've masked all my hopes in reels of twining schemes
But I pray that my faith would reconnect the winding streams
And deliver to the sea all that's yet to come to me
