Riverchild

(Album: Riverchild - 2015)

I am a house of cards
Bound to fall at any blow
You are the rushing wind
And I collapse every time I feel you in my skin

My quiver is empty
All my arrows spent
All bended and broken
In disarray and discontent

I am an astronaut
Trying to find my way home
You are a satellite
Floating all around my mind

My flesh is fading
As my spirit soars
My heart is aching
To be in two places at once

Oh, plant me by the river
Let me rest my soul
Oh, sing
Sing to me, oh, river
'Til I am made whole

Oh, plant me by the river
Oh, sing
Sing to me, oh, river

Oh, plant me by the river
Oh, sing
Sing to me, oh, river
