Moon River Songtext

Moon River Songtext
Run to me
′Cause I've left my arms wide open
My door is unlocked
And my lights are blinking on and off
If you said to me
Darling build me up a home in the north country
I would lift my hammer high
Drive in the nails that would set us free
Thought that I, I′d take a lesson from you
And die with the one I love
Sing to me
Lover tuck me in so gracefully
When I shake and I shiver
Darling please deliver
That calm that will wash all over me
Like a war bride I put my dukes in
I sat and waited for an answer
"River" was never the right song
For me in the basement
Thought that I, I'd take a lesson from you
And die with the one I love
Well I guess I got it wrong
I was dragged down that long dark road of grieving
You had my thoughts tied up with things you did while leaving
And all those things that kept me up
I cannot stop believing
You're not receiving
′Cause I've left my arms wide open
My door is unlocked
And my lights are blinking on and off
If you said to me
Darling build me up a home in the north country
I would lift my hammer high
Drive in the nails that would set us free
Thought that I, I′d take a lesson from you
And die with the one I love
Sing to me
Lover tuck me in so gracefully
When I shake and I shiver
Darling please deliver
That calm that will wash all over me
Like a war bride I put my dukes in
I sat and waited for an answer
"River" was never the right song
For me in the basement
Thought that I, I'd take a lesson from you
And die with the one I love
Well I guess I got it wrong
I was dragged down that long dark road of grieving
You had my thoughts tied up with things you did while leaving
And all those things that kept me up
I cannot stop believing
You're not receiving
