River Lyrics by Jana Kirschner

Shine

2007

I was running from the traffic jam
Inside my head
I close my eyes for a little while
Drove a cadillac
I spread my wings
And leave beneath the words
That have been said
There I am up in the clouds
Free of the past

Take me to the river
When blue turn yellow and green
In the shade lay down by the water
Just you and me
Take me to the river
I don't need the lights of paris and rome
Take me down to the water
Carry me home

I left friends without note
I hope they will understand
I’m gonna let them go today
Start up a new band

I wrote a song
I made a wish
I had a little fun
Here in the clouds
All my gravity
Can't bring me down

Take me to the river
When blue turn yellow and green
In the shade lay down by the water
Just you and me
Take me to the river
I don't need the lights of paris and rome
Take me down to the water
Carry me home

Take me to the river
When blue turn yellow and green
In the shade lay down by the water
Just you and me
Take me to the river
I don’t need the lights of paris and rome
Take me down to the water
Carry me home
