Yonder l ine of naked trees
Yonder b urn the thousand winds
Blowin g hidden things
Diamonds never di e
B orderline of naked t rees
It is blowing from the s ea
Homeless scatter ed ash
Swallows never cr ash
D own below that line of trees
T here's a pl ace where old friend s mee t
R iver oh so s weet
Never running dr y
D own below that line of trees
There's a place where old friends me et
River oh so swe et
N ever running dr y
A ll the years went up in smoke
S ailing on the riverboat
Down the r iver down the stream
H anging on as in a dream
All the ti me went down the drain
A nd yet the song remained the same
We grew wis e and we grew mean
A nd it's all gone with the rain
Yonder pa th of broken stones
Stormy pa th of broken bones
Yonder pa th of broken stones
Stormy pa th of broken bones
Leadin g to this shore
Where we shall have to walk n o more
Have y ou found a place to rest
Crossed your arms across your chest
Will you stay fo r another day. ...
A ll the year s went up in smoke
S ailing on the riverboa t
Down the rive r down the stream
Hanging o n as in a dream
All the ti me went down the drain
And yet the song remained the sam e
We g rew wise and we grew mean
It is al l gone with the rain
With the r ain with the rain
With the rain
P aper crawn on New Year's Eve
Giggling "Son it could be your name"
Drawing k ings
Won't ever be the sam e
B orderline of naked trees
It is blowing from the se a
Homeless scattered ash
Swallows never crash
