Take me to a rivertown where you can't tell night from day
|
Everythings forgiven that did not wash away
|
Where dreaming comes too easy, livings twice as hard
|
And everything is burried, beneath the water and the stars
|
|
Yeah I am from Corsican', wayward on the storm
|
I've been rolling empty sevens since the day that I was born
|
I've got no rings upon my fingers, no ink beneath my skin
|
I'll be as clean going out as I was coming in
|
|
CHORUS
|
I'm gonna wash my sins in the Angilina river
|
When all that she can take from me, is all that I can give her
|
And time will bring you down, and time will make you cold
|
I've turned my back some time ago, and now I'm going home
|
|
Well I wondered through the pine trees like an outlaw in the rain
|
I rambled through big thicket with a pistol and my name
|
Run away restless angels, don't waste your love on me
|
Just lay me down in a river town, and home is where I'll be
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
Well take me to the rivertown where you can't tell night from day
|
Everythings forgiven that did not wash away
|
