River Song
Chasing Shadows: A Melodic Journey of Love and Longing
Lyrics
Stumbled homeward again
Returning home in a stumbling manner
Keep to the path straight ahead
Advising to stick to the straight path
But in this town, I swear I see you
Noticing someone in the town who reminds of a person
Don't let me leave you again
Expressing a desire to not part ways again
Will I see you
Pondering whether there will be a reunion
At the river?
Questioning the possibility of meeting at the river
We belong on the run
Feeling a sense of belonging while on the run
By the sunrise
Referring to being gone by sunrise
We'll be long, long gone
Anticipating a prolonged absence
'Til these banks run wild
Describing a scenario until the riverbanks become wild
And the whiskey is dry
Connecting wild riverbanks with dry whiskey
We could stay here awhile in a dream
Proposing staying in a dream but waking up to a harsh reality
But I wake with a cold winter ache in my bones
Experiencing a cold winter ache upon waking
Take me on home
Yearning to be taken home
Will I see you
Repeating the question of whether a meeting will occur
At the river?
Reiterating the possibility of meeting at the river
We belong on the run
Emphasizing a sense of belonging while on the run
By the sunrise
Referring again to being gone by sunrise
We'll be long, long gone
Reiterating the expectation of a prolonged absence
Hang your legs into the water
Encouraging a relaxed posture at the river
Dig your toes into the sand
Suggesting a connection with nature by engaging with the sand
Lay your head against my skin
Inviting physical closeness and intimacy
In your eyes, I see a somber song
Observing a melancholic expression in the eyes
Sing it to the wind
Proposing to express emotions to the wind through song
We could leave into the wind
Contemplating leaving into the wind
Ohhh
Expressing emotions with a vocalization
Isn't it painful love?
Pondering the painful aspect of love
Is it for shame?
Questioning if love is associated with shame
We could sing it to the wind
Considering expressing emotions to the wind again
Whoa
Repeating the vocalization expressing emotions
Isn't it painful love?
Reflecting on the painful nature of love
Is it for shame?
Questioning if love is linked to shame once more
We could sing it to the wind
Repeating the idea of expressing emotions to the wind
Whoa
Reiterating the pondering on the painful aspect of love
Isn't it painful love?
Repeating the question of whether love is for shame
Is it for shame?
Reiterating the reflection on the painful nature of love
