Riverrun Lyrics

Ten miles to save my name 
Steel crosses cold as stone 
Looking like a gambler throwing coins away 
I'm feeling so displaced 
You're painting candy on my faith 
You're so convincing 
I am so ashamed
Riverrun softly through the hands of people without toys 
Riverrun boldly through Vanity Fair
Riverrun cold 
Riverrun slow 
Riverrun free with the wind in your hair 
Life from the turn of the stairs
I've felt the mountain rain 
I've seen it nurse a thousand veins 
I've watched the rivulets of silent grace 
But now my memory strains 
To wash its hands in muddy streams 
As I sit fishing by a dying tree 
It's hard to know your place 
Look down and people call you brave 
Look up and people tell you what to say 
Don't throw my words away 
Don't even try to paraphrase 
Some words are spoken best from broken frames
