I step to the shore with the dawn
Bare feet cool in river sand
Misty fingers rise and then are gone
Carrying old maps in my hand
The water hums an ancient tune
I let it pull me where it can
Last night I chased the heron's flight
Tangled roots beneath the pine
The current showed me day and night
Blendboundaries blurred redefined
Round each bend the world falls new
My own reflections close behind
Tall grass bows with every breeze
Pebbles turn beneath my heel
Clouds parade with casual ease
Their silent faith is what I feel
Every pool holds some release
I trust the water's will is real
Mountains rise to watch me pass
Snowmelt laughter at my side
Freedom isn't made to last
It's something swelling from inside
I trade my compass for the chance
To let this living current guide
Every river knows the way to freedom
Doesnt pause for fences doesnt plead
It teaches hearts how to believe them
The open miles that we all need
(Ohhh ohwooooh)
(See how it runs see how it runs)
(Ohhh)
Once I froze high up by the willows bend
Sun painting circles through trembling leaves
Heard the stones confess their journeys never end
Even the wildest fall and rise and breathe
I cupped the stream found each answer slips through fingers
Yet every drop claims a sky of its own
Ripples callso I learn I linger
In letting go Im most at home
(Ohhh ohhh)
(Every river every river knows)
Let it go let it be
All thats free free in me
