River, Run Me Dry

A thousand faces
On a grey, grey day
A million houses
Under dull, dark sky

So much noise and
So little time
Oh river, run me dry

A natural world
With these strange men's votes
Go back home
And lock your door

So much noise and
So little time
Oh river, run me dry

River, run me dry
Oh river, run me dry
Oh river, run me dry
Oh river, run me dry

Those big palm trees
On an ocean breeze
Pico butter
And deep blue seas
A thousand miles
Of clear blue sky
Taking time to let it pass me by

An empty space
To my open door
A turning fan
On a wooden floor
Drift away
In the sweet sunshine
Welcome to this world of mine

Oh river, run me dry
Oh river, run me dry
Oh river, run me dry
Oh river, run me dry

Miles de caras
En un dia gris, gris
Un millon de casas
Bajo un cielo oscuro, opaco

Tanto ruido
Tan poco tiempo
Oh rio, correme seco

Un mundo natural
Con los votos de esos hombres extraños
Volver a casa
Y mirar tu puerta

Tanto ruido
tam poco tiempo
Oh rio, correme seco

Rio, correme seco
Oh rio, correme seco
Oh rio, correme seco
Oh rio, correme seco

Esas palmera grandes
En una brisa de mar
Pico de matequilla
Y profundos oceanos azules
Miles de millas
De cielos azules despejados
Tomandome tiempo para dejarlos pasar

Un espacio vacio
En mi puerta abierta
Un ventilador girando
En un piso de madera
Me perdi
En los dulces rallos de sol
Vienvenido al mundo de las minas

Oh rio, correme seco
Oh rio, correme seco
Oh rio, correme seco
Oh rio, correme seco
