The Grateful Dead - Childhood’s End lyrics
[The Grateful Dead - Childhood’s End lyrics]
When I was hoppin' freights and
Makin' payments on the farm
Here between the angels and the deep blue sea
You were runnin', laughin'
Growin' sheltered from the storm
Dreamin' of the day the moon
Would set you free
Yeah, to sing your siren song
So sweet and warm river run deep
River run slow get a little restless
Wanna see some whales blow
River run cold river run clear
That feeling always gets to me
Round about this time of year
Scoutin' unknown borders under
Multi-colored moons
In the wildest flights of cosmic mystery
Rang a single soarin' tone that
Strung the sky in tune
As the silence in my heart rose from the sea
Aaah, to greet you in the
Dawn with a pale harpoon
River run restless river run high
Runnin' thru a hailstorm
Try to catch a star on the fly
River run muddy river flow like tears
Cocoon of life surroundin' us
Holdin' all our hopes and fears
Reach behind the wind
Search beyond the stars
We're the life on Mars
When the day grows dark and
Scary scatterin' the light
All the colors run away and
Hide behind your knees
The same sweet thunder tumbles
Rollin' down the night
Like a mothership that calls for you and me
Come on
And drift along that sky river bright
River run swiftly river run wide
Feel like sailin' on the morning tide
River run golden river run true
Set a course and follow
O-o-o oh, the star that leads to you
Makin' payments on the farm
Here between the angels and the deep blue sea
You were runnin', laughin'
Growin' sheltered from the storm
Dreamin' of the day the moon
Would set you free
Yeah, to sing your siren song
So sweet and warm river run deep
River run slow get a little restless
Wanna see some whales blow
River run cold river run clear
That feeling always gets to me
Round about this time of year
Scoutin' unknown borders under
Multi-colored moons
In the wildest flights of cosmic mystery
Rang a single soarin' tone that
Strung the sky in tune
As the silence in my heart rose from the sea
Aaah, to greet you in the
Dawn with a pale harpoon
River run restless river run high
Runnin' thru a hailstorm
Try to catch a star on the fly
River run muddy river flow like tears
Cocoon of life surroundin' us
Holdin' all our hopes and fears
Reach behind the wind
Search beyond the stars
We're the life on Mars
When the day grows dark and
Scary scatterin' the light
All the colors run away and
Hide behind your knees
The same sweet thunder tumbles
Rollin' down the night
Like a mothership that calls for you and me
Come on
And drift along that sky river bright
River run swiftly river run wide
Feel like sailin' on the morning tide
River run golden river run true
Set a course and follow
O-o-o oh, the star that leads to you
