| Saw you in the moss | |
| See the birds up above | |
| You stood up with a shout | |
| And said that it's time | |
| We ran through the oak hall woods | |
| Saw the shadows on car hoods | |
| Swinging on the old | |
| Telephone lines | |
| Oh, my love | |
| I think that | |
| I could run forever | |
| Make you stay so true | |
| And not be lonely ever | |
| Now my world come right | |
| I will swim the river | |
| Until my bones give up | |
| You said that you were born | |
| Daddy took you home | |
| He whispered to the ground | |
| Ever softly | |
| Left the shovel on the stone | |
| Left the hill alone | |
| Drove like the road | |
| Was the only life to know | |
| Oh, my love | |
| I think that | |
| I could run forever | |
| We don't stand a chance | |
| We will run the river | |
| I swore on your bed | |
| I will be forever | |
| Until my bones give up | |
| And the birds they land | |
| And I see both of you are there | |
| And we are walking | |
| We are walking | |
| And as you turn around | |
| I see your hands, they look like mine | |
| And we are walking | |
| We are walking back toward the hill | |
| Oh, my love | |
| I think that | |
| I could run forever | |
| We don't stand a chance | |
| Tow now more than ever | |
| Make you stay so true | |
| And be lonely never | |
| Until your bones give up | |
| Oh, my love | |
| I think that | |
| I could run forever | |
| We don't stand a chance | |
| We will run the river | |
| Now my world come right | |
| I will never leave her | |
| Until our bones give up |
