lyrics

Cool River

Cool , cool river
Take me down a country mile
This whole town’s burning
Let me rest here for a while

Turn off all the static
This ugly buzzing and all the thunder in the street
Give me silence like a snow storm
Give me a sunny Sunday morning
Give me peace

Deep slow water
Swollen by the rain
Pull me from the banks of this disaster
Like a sliver from the skin
Like a needle from the vein

If I could turn off all the voices
All of the chatter
All of the panic in my sleep
You know I’m tired of all this trouble
River bring me some relief

Hold me lover
Hold me in your welcome arms
You’re my sweet protector
Let me rest here
Turn off the alarms

When I’m twisted like a cyclone
When I’m churning like the sea
You root me to this earth woman
Bring me sweet release

Lyric by Robert Wilson and Andrew Westoll (c)2009 Late Arrival Music
