C (for a while) then
We turn away to face the cold, enduring chill
As the day begs the night
for mercy love
The sun so bright it leaves no shadows, only scars
Carved into stone
On the face of it
The moon is up and over One Tree Hill
We see the sun go down in your eyes
You run like a river, on to the sea
You run like a river runs to the sea
And in the world a heart of darkness, a fire zone
Where poets speak their heart
Then bleed for it
Jara sang - his song a weapon, in the hands of one
whose blood still cries
From the ground
It runs like a river runs to the sea
It runs like a river to the sea
Instrumental Middle Part:
I don't believe in painted roses or bleeding hearts
While bullets rape the night of the merciful
I'll see you again
When the stars fall from the sky
And the moon has turned red
Over One Tree Hill
We run like a river
Runs to the sea
We run like a river to the sea
And when it's raining
Raining hard
That's when the rain will
Break the heart
And so on. Peace and love.
