Run River Run Lyrics - Run River North - Run River North

Run river run 

Mother's calling heavy the sun 

She's tired from the storm, which is from the norm 

Standing at the gate, so quiet, unafraid 

But one has come 

One has come 

Run river run 

I hear your father's gun 

He's wary from the road, the wolves and the crows 

Kept him at the gates with hands full of praise 

But one has come 

One has one 

Rushing like a spirit from a wineskin bag 

Settled by your sister like it's never going back 

Mother's crying out with a different kind of sadness 

Sam can't shoot between a promise and a habit 

Run river run 

Out of dreams, into the sun 

Wake river wake 

There's fire coursing through your blood 

There's gold in your hair, the silver line is 

I know that they're scared, oh they're rushing to the wind 

But you won't let 'em in 

No, you won't let 'em in 

Rushing like a spirit from a wineskin bag 

Settle by your sister with your heart in her hands 

There's love in your words, she'll learn to sew 

I hear her laughing, and it sounds 

It sounds like 

Home 

It sounds like 

Home 

It sounds like 

Home 

It sounds like 

Home 

Rushing like a spirit from a wineskin bag 

Settle by your sister with your heart in her hands 

There's love in your words, she'll learn to sew 

I hear her laughing, and it sounds 

It sounds like 

Home 

It sounds like 

Home 

It sounds like 

Home 

It sounds like 

Home
