lyrics

Love in time deceives me
I wonder what I could be
I’m drinking from a canyon
I hold you like a lesson
The grip I’m giving lessens

Now it is the season
Good tidings on the pathways
Cold comfort of reflections
Goodness in the ways I strayed
River bend my mind straight

Twenty-nine years now
I met you in the middle
I never could outpace you
Running river tried and true
I only know it with you

An everlasting ocean
On a finite evening
I ran across it with you
We played our bodies in tune
Love in time I find you

Saw you on the mountain
I told you all I’m breathing
But love my holy reason
I do not like the leaving
Stay here for the season

How you help my mind grow
The running river only flows
Into the days I cannot know
When heaven takes me nice and slow
But heaven’s what I do not know
River bend the light enfolds
I know I know I know
I hold I hold I hope
Love in time I know
I know I know I know
