"From The River" lyrics - ELBOW

Friendships yet to be set
Will billow in your sails
Every day
Every day

Love that will take your breath
Just to be winter frail
Is the only way
The only way

Take me over the hills
In the din of a dawn chorus
Double the farthest that I've ever run
Bring us home something bright from the river
Bring us home something beautiful, son
Fall hopelessly time after time
But pay no mind to circling birds

If and when you cry
Feed it to the flowers you'll find along the way
Along the way

Funny wise and kind
Use those superpowers
Every day
Every day

Take me over the hills
In the din of a dawn chorus
Double the farthest that I've ever run
Bring us home something bright from the river
Bring us home something beautiful, son

Bring us home something bright from the river
Bring us home something beautiful, son
Fall hopelessly time after time
But pay no mind to circling birds

Bring us home something bright from the river, son
From the river, from the river, from the river, oh
Bring us home something bright from the river, son
From the river, from the river, from the river, oh

Bring us home something bright from the river, son
From the river, from the river, from the river, oh
Bring us home something bright from the river, son
From the river, from the river, from the river, oh
