Bilingual
From an old sidewalk
I watch the sparrows fly
Shadows drift across the fences
As the sun begins to hide
A cold, hushed conversation
From a distant summer's air
It lingers in the silence
As no one else is there
A wrinkled map in my pocket
Haunted towns in my mind
I trace each route by lamplight
Not knowing what I'll find
A whining guitar on the radio
Drifts through my heavy brain
I'm sifting through the stories
That keep me half insane
Meet me at the river near the hollow cypress tree
I hope it's there for you because I know it's there for me
You were the moon and I was the sun
And we died every night
Let's meet down at the river one more time
The rain fell in the distance
Easing my hazy fears
I tried to count the drops as
They merged into my tears
There's warmth within the longing
A spark no storm can drown
It flickers in every footstep
On a road that's overgrown
I've walked a restless journey
Many people left behind
With fragments of a promise
Somewhere in my mind
Pages turn when hope is near
And words no longer hide
They wait beneath the surface
For another to arrive
Meet me at the river near the hollow cypress tree
I hope it's there for you because I know it's there for me
You were the moon and I was the sun
And we died every night
Let's meet down at the river one more time
Let's meet down at the river one more time
