History Book - Dry the River[00:00:00]

Like faithful oxen through the chalk [00:00:18]

With dragging tails of history walk [00:00:24]

Soon confuse the compass and the cross [00:00:27]

Carefully and cursively fill[00:00:35]

We our travelling diaries with loss [00:00:41]

Beneath an angry Bible flood [00:00:53]

Did you and I first learn to love [00:00:58]

In my father's car we came to know [00:01:03]

And shivered in our painted clothes[00:01:10]

And paired like every animal below [00:01:14]

Heavy As as a history book can be [00:01:27]

I will carry it with me oh Lord [00:01:31]

Maybe And when the bitterness has gone [00:01:43]

There'll be sweetness on our tongues once more [00:01:47]

Barefoot in a rowing boat [00:01:59]

You lose your shoes and freeze your toes [00:02:04]

And say I wear my sorrow like a crown [00:02:08]

And throw your arms around my head [00:02:15]

And see it there in gold and red and brown [00:02:19]

Heavy As as a history book can be [00:02:29]

I will carry it with me oh Lord [00:02:34]

Maybe And when the bitterness has gone [00:02:45]

There'll be sweetness on our tongues once more [00:02:49]

We'll soon forget our parents' names [00:03:01]

Like dogs will drive the wolves away [00:03:08]

And weep with fingertips opposed [00:03:16]

A Like church where nobody congregates [00:03:21]

But sweetness sings in the pasture [00:03:32]

We throw ourselves on the mercy of the earth [00:03:36]

If sand and salt have the answer [00:03:40]

Then the act itself will be louder than the word [00:03:43]

And I'll be on your side [00:03:47]

And I'll be on your side [00:03:49]

And I'll be on your side[00:03:56]
