Lyrics
[Verse 1] We turn away to face the cold, enduring chill As the day begs the night for mercy, love [Verse 2] A sun so bright it leaves no shadows Only scars carved into stone on the face of earth [Verse 3] The moon is up and over One Tree Hill We see the sun go down in your eyes [Chorus] You run like a river on at the sea You run like a river runs to the sea [Verse 4] And in the world, a heart of darkness, a fire-zone Where poets speak their heart then bleed for it [Verse 5] Jara sang, his song a weapon in the hands of love You know his blood still cries from the ground [Chorus] It runs like a river runs to the sea It runs like a river to the sea [Verse 6] I don't believe in fancy roses or bleeding hearts While bullets rape the night of the merciful [Verse 7] I'll see you again when the stars fall from the sky And the moon has turned red over One Tree Hill [Chorus] We run like a river runs to the sea We run like a river to the sea [Post-Chorus] And when it's rainin', rainin' hard That's when the rain will break a heart Rainin', rainin' hard Rainin' in your heart Rainin', rain into Rainin', rainin', rainin' Rain into your Rainin', ooh, ooh Feel it [Outro] Oh great ocean Oh great sea Run to the ocean Run to the sea
