Night like a river, banks are steep
Carry my burden, bury my worry deep
It's like she told me some time ago
There's plenty for harvest, then the cold winds blow
I could live a long, long while on the sweetness of her breath
And I could die for walking miles, and still not find my rest
Bound and delivered, I returned
Tried to forgive her for all the ground we burned
Maybe tomorrow waters will clear
I'll shake this sorrow and leave my worry here
Carry my burden, bury my worry deep
It's like she told me some time ago
There's plenty for harvest, then the cold winds blow
I could live a long, long while on the sweetness of her breath
And I could die for walking miles, and still not find my rest
Bound and delivered, I returned
Tried to forgive her for all the ground we burned
Maybe tomorrow waters will clear
I'll shake this sorrow and leave my worry here
