lirik lagu the river, where she sleeps – dave carter
she’s a walkin’ talkin’ breathin’ new age wonder, old time heathens
don’t know what to make of mary jane
’cause she ain’t tryin to be no swami, she ain’t mad at dad and mommy
she don’t curse the storm clouds when it rains
when the sun refuse to shine she don’t mind, she make everything look fine
she got moon in her eyes, crescent windows on the skies
and the rain comes down in sheets on the people in the streets
and it carries all the secrets that they keep to the river where she sleeps
she comes to me when i’m dejected, leaves her soul out unprotected
tells me that the truth can make me free
and she don’t need what she ain’t got, she reads me books by alan watts
speakin’ words o’ wisdom: let it be
when the sun refuse to shine she don’t mind, she take thunder for a sign
she got stars in her head, supernovas in her bed
and it rains most every day, but i like it fine that way
’cause the waters run so marvelous and deep in the river where she sleeps
now mary ain’t inclined to drinkin’, still she stumbles without thinkin’
anywhere she gets the urge to stray
and everybody knows about her, they don’t want to change or doubt her
they just grin when she comes out to play
when the sun refuse to shine she don’t mind, she be movin’ down the line
she got bells on her toes, generations in her clothes
and she sings without a sound as the evenin’ rolls around
and she dances as the twilight shadows creep down the river where she sleeps
professor come to burst my bubble, says that girl is bound for trouble
serves me solace in a paper cup
but it looks a bit like agent orange and when he leaves he slams the door and
just about that time she phones me up
when the sun refuse to shine she don’t mind, she just ain’t the worryin’ kind
she got dogs, she got cats, she keeps rabbits in her hats
and the people that she sees, they’re all buddha’s or police
and the banks rise high and perilous and steep by the river where she sleeps
now one dismayed december dawn i wake to find my mary’s gone
and no one knows when she’ll come back again
and all the silent temple bells from styx to glenn to hazel dell
are mournin’ all the nights that might have been
when the sun refuse to shine she don’t mind, she just leave this world behind
she got wheels in her smile, she can coast along for miles
me i’m walkin’ all alone, feelin’ soulful to the bone
till i stop and i hang my head and weep by the river where she sleeps
