River Lullaby

Sliding through the silence of high night peaks

            hush little shush little

                  rush little river

 

Swallowing secrets that the moon-child speaks

            hush little shush little

                  rush little river

 

Silver-line dreams where cityscapes sleep

            hush little shush little

                  rush little river

 

Rumble ever onwards - It's a journey to be free

            hush little shush little

                  rush little river

 

Back into the arms of a dawn-dressed sea

            hush little shush little

                  rush little river
