lyrics

River Dream

By: Charlie Mills

The morning fog is slowly rising
I slide down to the water-side
I can hear them laughing at me
The locals and their cautious eyes
Cautious eyes

The water wraps around my pant leg
It goes along its merry way
Over rocks and under bridges
It's searching for the distant lake
The distant lake

And never in two moments
is a river quite the same
It's constantly in motion
The tributaries gain

Water's moving fast
Plan a good route back
Water's moving fast

So I take my hook, my line, and leader
And I throw it forward from my back
And it lands there out on the water
Lands there without a splash
Without a splash

And the sun comes through the forest
Where the cedars let it pass
To touch the surface water
And get reflected back

Was it just my eyes? or did I see it rise
Was it just my eyes? or did a shadow rise
Was it just my eyes? or did a brook trout rise
Was it just my eyes? Was it just my eyes?

Well it took my fly and we run downstream
In my River Dream
Well it took my fly and we run downstream
In my River Dream
Well it took my fly and we run downstream
In my River Dream
Well it took my fly…….
and we run downstream……
In my River Dream
