Oh hurry with him down by the river
He's hid some pitch and the twine
You'll build a raft
And you will raise your flag
Go claim everything this river hides
As far is the Old Waterworks go ride
There's a workhorse they all call Maria
She's tied up behind Arroyo Pines
Free her from her hitch and hold onto her neck
The wind will make you lighter and you'll rise
Look down on the falls from every side
Follow him now
Before you know it too much time will pass
We're left to please this world the way we suppose we're meant to be
And you'll hear too far away
Follow me
I held onto the door
My treasured thoughts slipped out before
The pull of worn out tides to tell-tale falls
I don't own anything at all
Oh hurry with him
Don't tell your father
Fly now or you never will
A wall still stands of rock we dug up from the land
And once you reach the edge you'll see
Whose life you are really meant to lead
I'll make a plea to Venus
On a night when she's dangling with the moon
Girls keep your eyes on my daughter
I'm so afraid I've sent her off too soon
Cross my heart she is stronger
And only at the edge you see
How far away you're really meant to be
Follow him now
Before you know it too much time will pass
We're left to please this world the way we suppose we're meant to be
And you'll hear too far away
Follow me
May as well let down my hair
And wash away the wasted years
The pull of worn out tides to tell-tale falls
Before I don't hear anything at all
May as well let down my hair
And wash away the wasted years
The pull of worn out tides to tell-tale falls
Before I don't hear anything at all
