2009

There is a black river
It passes by my window
And late at night, all dolled up like Christ
I walk the waters between the piers.
-
Singing
Oh, River of Sorrow
River of Time
River of Sorrow
Don't swallow this time.
-
For we all know the baby has expired
Long ago she was pulled from the mire
And no precious liar or well-wisher
Can return the love that was stolen.
-
Can you see the light at the end of the dark
passageway? Take me with you towards this
light... into the darkness... passing over the
faces in the river... Hear me! I'm whispering in
your ear! Take me with you.
