lyrics

I was swallowed by the mouth of the river
I let my worries wash ashore
floating out in those wide winding currents
said I won’t hunt that dream anymore
no I won’t hunt that dream anymore

you crept into my heart like an ivy
an oak with spanish moss
& no it’s not only the city that’s sinking
but you don’t fear the loss-
you just keep rolling along

how you’ve carried me down with the drifting & wandering
to where the air is thick & still
time could spread its arms to surround me
I’m caught as you freely flow
engulfed in yr open coasts

so let me lay by you one more night here in limbo
between the swamp & the sea
reveling where the sun lives in winter
how the glitter, the gold & shine
crowd the streets

oh, mississippi-
how I’ve combed your edges
like fingers through a lover’s hair
now I am tangled
in awe of your ending
so I’ll pour my excesses in
till I forget where we
begin
