Days of sorrow
Year of pain
Through the woods of darkened stain
Just a seam of afterglow
Lead my way to river road
It was high atop these hills
I felt the clouds so close across
The valley I did walk atop the river road
And it's on and on we go, we go
Cause the river my friends is gonna take you home
And it's on and on we go, we go
Cause the river my friends is gonna take you home
Days dust to nip at heels
Through the cuttings moonlight throw
In this place of little hope
There it lies the dream to float
I am weightless worthy seep
Cold night come to bury me
Bearing down a crushing weight
Murky water take away
Cause it's on and on we go, we go
Cause the river my friends is gonna take you home
Cause it's on and on we go yeah
Cause the river my friends is gonna take you home
I tried to touch the stars
I didn't get so close so you brought those stars towards me
To find my way back home
