Neil Young - Hangin’ on a Limb lyrics

[Neil Young - Hangin’ on a Limb lyrics]

Though the river flows gently to the sea
He was on the shore, rooted like a tree
She was here and there, riding on the waves
Through it all
She heard his call and gave it all she gave

And though their love was hanging on a limb
She taught him how to dance and start again
And though their love was hanging on a limb
She taught him how to dance
(She taught him how to dance)

And when the melody through the window called
It echoed in the courtyard and
Whispered in the halls
He played it through the night
She knew he had to go
There was something about freedom he
Thought he didn't know

And though their love was hanging on a limb
She taught him how to dance and start again
And though their love was hanging on a limb
She taught him how to dance
(She taught him how to dance)

Though the river flowed gently to the sea
He was on the shore, rooted like a tree
She was here and there, riding on the waves
Through it all
She heard his call and gave it all she gave

And though their love was hanging on a limb
She taught him how to dance
(She taught him how to dance)
