[Verse 1]
Hope for snow at a quiet dawn
Frost on the window pane
Branches cut into clear blue sky
And the wind carries your name
[Chorus 1]
Run river, run, to the sea
Water always wants to be free
[Verse 2]
Light a fire to keep the night at bay
And the wolves from the door
Watch those words rise with a smoke
And shadows dance on the floor
[Chorus 2]
Run river, run, to the sea
Water always wants to be free
Run river, run, over me
Water take away my memory
Water take away my memory
[Chorus 2]
Run river, run, to the sea
Water always wants to be free
Run river, run, over me
Water take away my memory
Water take away my memory
[Bridge]
Water take away my memory
Water take away my memory
Water take away my memory
[Chorus 2]
Run river, run, to the sea
Water always wants to be free
Run river, run, over me
Water take away my memory
Water take away my memory
[Outro]
Water take away my memory
