Dear river, won't you take me out of here?
Tell your friend the sea
That I'll be waiting at the pier
Then throw me down to those rolling waves
They're gonna take me the rest of the way
Show me bright city lights and streets I've never seen
Make a home for me on the path in-between
Then move me on like an autumn bird
For I wanna fly all around the world
Pull me in so we're close enough to kiss
Read the stars to me
For the sky it is a myth
Then hand me over to that restless wind
We're gonna ride to a land we've never been
But in every floodlit archway
And in every fading tile
Goes the memory of a self I've left behind
So please take me from these bright lights
I've loved them more than they have me
Take me back to where the river bends
That's where I long to be
Dear river, won't you take me out of here?
Tell your friend the sea
That I'll be waiting at the pier
Then throw me down to those rolling waves
They're gonna take me the rest of the way
