There's a sky when you run
And there's a sky when you surrender
You're so warm
The tangle of your thorns
But your hands, they know
It only hurts when in the hour you remember
You're the child in the tangle of your mind

You light up from a whisper telling how
I never found the way around myself
I listen now

I look for waking worlds
And no restraint in singing voices of my friends
A rising with no end
Along the sweep of words, I run my eyes
And see my old skin floating gently somewhere far
I wonder who we are

A light up from a whisper telling how
I never knew the captain's skill
But, oh, I wonder now

Slowly rivers turn
When love is out
Slowly rivers turn

A light up from a whisper telling how
I never found my way down to the shore
I listen now

And I don't want to be the yeller of my longings
I don't want to be the sailor of my past
And I don't want to be the band that plays the wedding
With a new leaving song on their mind
I gotta try

Slowly rivers turn
When love is out
Slowly rivers turn

A light up from a whisper telling how
I never knew the captain's skill
But oh, I get it now

You light up from a whisper telling how
I never found a way around myself
