Now I've been running still
Counting down the breathes
Trying not to cheat on time
While pushing back the clock
I've seen the sails blowing at half mast
As the storm began to raise
I've heard the echo of the bells
Round the valleys and the hills
A river flows in my veins
Crowds were gathered at the waters edge
While in each face and hand
A million stories there to tell
I've heard all the answers
But none that fit the question
Is there a way to silence
A river flows in my veins
Throughout the span of years
A-turning looms a-weaving
I'd keep my eyes closed if I could
But I've been waking into dream
A river flows in my veins
A river flows in my veins
And the blood runs down like rain
A river flows in my veins
The blood runs down like rain
A river flows in my veins
And the blood runs down like rain
And the blood runs down like rain
And the blood runs down like rain
And the blood runs down like rain
And the blood runs down like rain
And the blood runs down like rain
