Lyrics
Verse 1
Silver
The water
Runs cold and deep
No pebble thrown tonight
The surface stays flat
Smooth like a sheet
Waiting for a wind
To move
The heavy air
Chorus
If my words were gold
And your ears were mine
We would sit together
We would sit together
By the river
By the river
Post-Chorus
La la la
La la la
La la la la
Verse 2
Dusty
Fiddle cases
Resting on the porch
You can hear a string snap
The wood is dry
Thirsty for a song
Left behind
In the valley
Long ago
Chorus
If my words were gold
And your ears were mine
We would sit together
We would sit together
By the river
By the river
Post-Chorus
La la la
La la la
La la la la
Bridge
Walk soft
Think slow
Speak true
The path is wide enough
For the both of us
The path is wide enough
For the both of us
Verse 3
Sunlight
Fading fast
Through the pine needles
The shadows stretch long
Grey on green
Hiding the road
Home
Is where you start
Chorus
If my words were gold
And your ears were mine
We would sit together
We would sit together
By the river
By the river
Post-Chorus
La la la
La la la
La la la la
Outro
By the river
By the river
By the river
Just you and me
Watching it roll
Watching it roll
Slowly
Rolling away
