JULIA STONE lyrics : "The River"

Well, the river came to me, and it washed us all away
Someone is chasing me and noted where I used to stay
And I feel as I've been here many times before

As I kneel and I pick up the pieces on the floor
And you ask me in a voice, that is quiet, that is strong:
"Tell me of a place where the living don't belong."

I remember falling to the other side
I remember leaving my body behind


But the river pulled me away,
Before I got a chance to say what I say
And under the jacket I did lay

And the Christmas lights, they come from nowhere

I had visions often of rivers,

No, I didn't know their names
I had visions, notwithstanding in the heart of it all
And you ask me to tell you:

"Oh, what people might we become?"
Tell me of the dying we have done


But the river pulled me away,
Before I got a chance to say what I say
And under the jacket I did lay

And the Christmas lights, they came from nowhere

Oh, and under the river I stay

I won't get the chance to say what I say
Under the jacket, I will lay
And the Christmas lights, they come from nowhere

And the Christmas lights, they come from nowhere
And the Christmas lights, they come from nowhere
