INTRO: Golden, golden, golden river run To the East then drop beneath the sun And as the moon lies low and overhead ( We're lost VERSE 1: Burn slow, burning up the back wall Long roads, where the city meets the sky Most days, most days stay the sole same Please stay, for this fear it will not die If I had a boat, I would sail to you Hold you in my arms, ask you to be true Once I had a dream, it died long before ) Now I'm pointed north, hoping for the shore VERSE 2: Down low, down amongst the thorn rows Weeds grow, through the lilies and the vine Birds play, try to find their own way Soft clay, on your feet and under mine If I had a boat, I would sail to you Hold you in my arms, ask you to be true Once I had a dream, it died long before ) Now I'm pointed north, hoping for the shore BRIDGE: Splitting at the seams Heaving at the brace Sheets all billowing The breaking of the day Sea is not my friend And everyone conspires Still I choose to swim Slip beneath the tide Once I had a dream Once I had a hope That was yesterday Not so long ago This is not the end This is just the world Such a foolish thing Such an honest girl If I had a boat, I would sail to you Hold you in my arms, ask you to be true Once I had a dream, it died long before Now I'm pointed north, hoping for the shore
