Lyrics Call Of The River - Linda Perhacs

Call Of The River

She will call you
From the winding
Come away (come away)
And follow me She will call you
Reminding
Come feel along your side
The long cool touch
Of current
Like a far remembered life
Come quicken to the now you hear
Cutting off from closer years
Bounding into heavy pouring sounds
Come quick into the icy sting
Sharpening to everything
Pounding boundaries
Come away (come away)
And follow me On a winding
To the sea
Come away (come away)
And follow me Unwinding
To be free
And the call of the river
A man will answer
Cause he’s thirsty
For a far remembered life
Of pulsing to a larger rhythm
Feeling things that now lie hidden
Clean and cold within
The liquid taste of leaf and rock
The timing to a slower clock
Yearning for dampened
Musty wood
Come away (come away)
And follow me She will call you
She knows
Come away (come away)
And follow me Come taste this life
And grow
