The Rivers Song

Far across these hills

where the gentle rain falls

shadows  are dancing

down dark empty halls

Ghost gum trees climb 

into the starry sky

Feel the wind whisper

A soft lullaby

In the yellow and green

In the soft morning mist

Our love was sealed in the stars

The night we first kissed

When the birds fly high on the wing 

It won't be long

I'll be coming home to you soon

with a river song

My aim is the mystery

The travellers win 

I'm caught in the silver web

the night winds spin

And she believes  too

She makes me complete

She touches me deep in my soul 

with every heart beat

Repeat Chorus

Turn your eyes to the sun

It burns just like gold

Flame of a billion years

so ancient so old

Repeat Chorus
