Swans - The River That Runs with Love Won't Run Dry lyrics

Oh my father, he was born beneath the water And my mother, she was born to no one's daughter And I, I was born beneath the dying sun Born from the mouth of a river that would not run dry La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la lie La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la lie Oh, the river that runs with love, it won't run dry La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la lie Well, I awoke this morning in the blackest night And a million stars were aching in the sullen sky And I heard the great machines as they bled and cried And I saw the end of the world, I had no question why La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la lie La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la lie Hold on to the one you love and kiss her before she dies Oh, the river that runs with love, it won't run dry Oh, my father made the water when he cried But the river that runs with love, it won't run dry And the sun will burn a hole in the purple sky But the river that runs with love, it won't run dry
