River Was Blue

Down by the river where the Water's loud
And the wind calls out like an old Grey owl
Where My heart beats slow and My face sits still as stone
With Her hair spread out on the Cold dead grass
I could tell she was thinking about The past
I said look up at the trees and You'll be fine

Well the waters turned grey and so Have you

The sun ain't shine today and the Sky's not blue
I long to see the River sing to me
Realize that you're trapped and You'll be free

On that gentle morning when the Highway noise rang out of tune
You sprawled out on the bed and Screamed I wanna be someone New
The skin around our hands grew Loose and my sunken eyes called
Out for you
Gone are the days when you'd sing And the river was blue
