The River Lyrics by PJ Harvey

The River Lyrics

    and they came to the river
    and they came from the road
    and he wanted the sun
    just to call his own
    and they walked on the dirt
    and they walked from the road
    ëtil they came up close
    Throw your pain in the river
    To be washed away slow
    and we walked without words
    and we walked with our lives
    two silent birds
    circled by
    Like our pain in the river
    and we followed the river
    and we followed the road
    and we walked through this land
    and we called it a home
    but he wanted the sun
    and I wanted the whole
    and the white light scatters
    and the sun sets low
    Like the pain in the river
