Moonchild Riversong Lyrics by Eric Andersen

Be True To You

1975

Take me quiet like a river
Like the silver strings that sing for you
Love will make it better and I'm
Sorry that you saw me blue
I'll tell you of a sunrise
On a Texas plain so long ago
I looked into your sad eyes and
I couldn't say I loved you so
But I love you like the mountains
I love you like the sea
I love you like this highway that is always calling me
I love you like the forest
The quiet of the trees
I love you, darling, like a river now that runs deep in me
After we have waited
And that old highway won't steal my songs
Together we'll lie naked
Together we may catch the dawn
You will see my devils
And I will see your darkness too
And when the light has settled
I will sing this song to you
Cause I love you like the mountains
I love you like the sea
I love you like this highway that is always calling me
I love you like the ocean
The quiet of the breeze
I love you, darling, like a song now that runs deep in me
