River, run me dry

A thousand faces on a gray gray day
A million houses under dull dull sky
So much noise and so little time
Oh, river, run me dry

A natural world with these strange man's laws
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

Sweet palm trees on an ocean breeze
Big tall Buddha 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 into 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
Oh, river, run me dry
Oh, river, run me dry
Oh, river, run me dry
Oh, river, run me dry
Oh, river, run me dry
