Lyrics:
I live by the river on the wrong side of town
Nothing much to do here but listen to the sound
Of a train I'll never catch passin' me by
They can't tame the lion
One night in Detroit, yes I swear I saw you standing there
In a summer of dreams down by the river you were there
I
Look at all the other ants go
Marching slow like the river flow
Building their bridges and little roads
Never knowing you can have though
Peace by
a tree by a river
There's a hole in the ground
Where an old man of aran
Goes around and around
And his mind is a beacon
In the veil of the night
For
Let's go down by the river
Watch the river light
Big old paddle wheeler
Rolling through the southern night
No need in talking you know how I feel
And the red light flashed, beware
And the pilot felt quite big-time
As the bomb sailed through the air
Captain sang and sang
And the bang went bang
The morning clouds are gathering around as I stand on the bridge of the river
Years have gone since I was here and I wonder how I differ
Taxicabs
Your mama used to worry about that big muddy river
Honey do you remember?
You let the screen door slam when you stepped off the front porch
Hear
light, like divinity
Is carried by invisible
Rivers uniting you and me
A Saturday downpour carved out rivers in the sand
She said it was her first time to see the sea
Helping her climb across those jetty rocks was
and the moon looks all too familiar
The kids say There ain't no man in there
While the laid back baboon By the light of the Texas moon
Is combing his auburn
fast, rollin' by
And now, the drive-in don't play
No Friday night picture
With no big silver screen
To light up the sky
And gone are the days
Of post
River rolling
Keep on rolling
Rolling into the sea
River's rolling
Keep on rolling
Rolling into the sea
In the warm light of spring
Shines
the river of dreams, where aspirations lie.
Chorus:
Oh, river of dreams, carry me away,
In your gentle current, where fantasies sway,
Guided by stars in
O Crown of Light, O Darkened One,
I never thought we'd meet.
You kiss my lips, and then it's done:
I'm back on Boogie Street.
A sip of wine,
From the river to the sea
Palestine will be free
From the river to the sea
Palestine, you will be free
An open prison, surrounded day by day
By tanks
worries in a cloud of dust
Right there by the old fence post
Yeah, we're gonna drink a little beer, play a little music
And have a big time tonight
I'm fading out of sight
My wheels are the only sound
Runnin at the speed of a' light
'N I can't slow down now
Out on an open road
Racin'
Same river, we swim like some sliver, in skin
Now it's in the river again
But it's moving and it feels so cold
Maybe you will, catch it still
When the Heavens Light Up
by Patty Larkin
Look at your hand there in the wind
Familiar as your name
You're gonna spread your fingers like a wing
Dash light dripping on your sun tan skin
Radio playing that song again
Just pull me in, hmm pull me in
Cut off shorts and a vinyl seat
Slide
O light the candle, John
The daylight has almost gone
The birds have sung their last
The bells call all to mass
Sit here by my side
For the night is
O light the candle, John
The daylight has almost gone
The birds have sung their last
The bells call all to mass
Sit here by my side
For
and pretty lights
Going for a river ride
Tonight
Down by the riverside
Day turns into night
And you know that the time is right tonight
Alright
Down by
