River and Dale - Chuck Ragan

Through the wild 'tween river and dale

Watched by the sun humbled by hills

Sleep is mercy though

I've a ways 'til I'm beggin'

Color me grateful for the horizon of day

The breath out of one and

The courage it takes to find closure

In the wake of disaster

Oh to find saviors in

The way of the water

Steady steady steady

Steady as a storm

But lo' an ever present home

Through the shadows beyond the gunwale

The safety aboard a vessel

Propelled by my own will

Drifting away from the danger

Under the willow's t'ween

The sheen of a dew

Some laugh at the wind and they

Oh some cry to their makers

Listening out for an answer

Dragging the river always

An urge for a wager

Steady steady steady

Steady as a storm

But lo' an ever present home

Steady steady steady

To feel the skin and oooh

The journey's worth it's weight in gold

So got me to the open sea

With fair winds followin'

In pursuit of wonder to leave

They

Steady steady steady

Steady as a storm

But lo' an everpresent home

Steady steady steady

Feel the skin and oooh

The journey's worth it's weight in gold

Yeah
