Down by the river

Down by the river

I’ll meet you down by the river I’ll meet you under the silver moon I’ll be waiting for you there by the juniper This boat can carry two

I’m thinking of all the times I never told you… And all the lives where our paths have crossed But now I’m a lucky guy to have and to hold you You came to me when I was lost

I’m gonna cross that bridge when I get to it and I’m getting to it now, I know your language of love to a fault I’m gonna keep on, I won’t look back, I won’t look back I don’t want to turn into a pillar of salt

💜🌹

I’ll meet you up by the misty mountain We can fetch our water from the source I’ll throw three coins for you in the magic fountain I know the place where you tie your horse

Your Venus is in the ascendant And my lion is in the house of swords This super-starry night is kinda transcendent I’ll tell you my secrets, will you tell me yours?

Didn’t you once lay down your golden life for me? Didn’t I once kneel down right beside your cross? Didn’t I once surrender to your sweet mystery? Didn’t you once teach me how to bear the loss?

💜🌹

I feel I’ve always known you, but then… I feel I’m just getting to know you again, When I was a child you were my friend You were there at the beginning and at the end

💜🌹

So I’ll meet you in the morning meadow Yeah, I’ll meet you in the crack between the worlds I’ll meet you at the heartbeat of the planet Where the Virgin bleeds into the earth

Here, let me help you carry your cross I can’t remember how often you helped me to carry mine In the glorious dawn I feel a shiver Down by the river
