Where the River Learns to Sing

Verse 1

Morning broke across the valley

Sunlight creeping through the pines

I packed my boots and my old guitar case

Left the city far behind

Pre-Chorus

The road it curves and climbs

Where the wildflowers touch the sky

Chorus

Take me home to the ridgeline

Where the river learns to sing

I can feel the earth wide open

And the mountain breeze on everything

Post-Chorus

On everything

On everything

Verse 2

The screen door clatters in the breeze

Coffee's warm upon the stove

I whistle down to the hound dog

While the meadow comes alive

Pre-Chorus

The seasons turn on by

But the hills they never lie

Chorus

Take me home to the ridgeline

Where the river learns to sing

I can feel the earth wide open

And the mountain breeze on everything

Post-Chorus

On everything

On everything

Bridge

Softer than the summer thunder

Higher than the eagle's wing

Every step leads me to wonder

Every mile homeward swings

Chorus

Take me home to the ridgeline

Where the river learns to sing

I can feel the earth wide open

And the mountain breeze on everything

Post-Chorus

On everything

On everything
