Melon Bend Lyrics

Saw you in the moss
See the birds up above
You stood up with a shout and said that it's time
We ran through the oak hall woods
See the shadows on the old car hoods
Swinging on the old town telephone lines
Chorus:
Oh my love I think that I could run forever
Make you stay so true and not be lonely ever
Now my world come right
I will swim the river until my bones give up

Said when you were you born
Your daddy took you home
He whispered to the ground ever softly
Left the shovel on the stone
Left the Hill Alone
Drove like the road was the only line to know
Chorus
Oh my love I think that I could run forever
We don't stand a chance so we will run the river
I swore on your bed I will leave her never
Until my bones give up

And the birds they land
And I see both of you are there
And we are walking
And we are walking
And as you turnaround I see your hands
They look like mine
And we are walking
And we are walking back toward the hill
Oh my love I think that I could run forever
We don't stand a chance so we will run the river
Now my world come right
I will never leave her until my bones give

Oh my love I think that I could run forever
I don't like this(???)
So we will run the river
Now my world come right
I will swim the river until my bones give up
