lyrics

River Song
Joshua Polaris

Oohs

Single Feather of a Nightingale
Web of spider shines a message for me
Summer stone and water's love affair
Down near the river where I lay

Oohs

Serpent called me to the water's edge
Rise and fall a Tall request while dreaming
So I went to bury medicine
Down near the river where I lay
Water clean me with your serpent stare
Shed this skin your touch repairs what's leaking
Hard to see what Spirit's buried there
Down near the river where I lay

Ooh

I surrender I be humbled by this tall mystery
Here I'm clearing all resistance that's been harbored me
Here I temper superstitions til I'm sealed up and clean
I remember how to listen built my shelter with ease

Cultivate grace in ease
