Violet Hour - By A River lyrics

<b>By A River</b> by <i>Violet Hour</i><br />

By a river

The colours of the land

Emerge before my eyes

Soothing winds that blow my cares away

Through the trees

Call the priest, his wife, his friends, the police

I had to run away

Leave this all behind

Close your eyes

Wan goodbye, goodbye

I didn't see the point

Couldn't take the load

Drift away

Above me a new day's growing old

Bound by the chains of a crippling debt

Slipping through the dreads of a foolproof net

Run away

Far away

Shaped by the laws of deception and greed

Stamped and rejected I beg to be freed

Lose the key

Lose the key

I had to run away

Leave this all behind

Close your eyes

Wan goodbye, goodbye

I didn't see the point

Couldn't take the load

Drift away

Above me a new day's growing old

By a river

The colours of the land

Emerge before my eyes

Soothing winds that blow my cares away

Through the trees
