The Morning Moon - If I Was a River

I've got a bucket in my hands but the river's run dry
I've got a bucket in my hands but the river's run dry
I've walked the miles I've travelled this land
I've walked many miles oh to get where I am
I've walked many miles oh to get where I am

And if I was a river would I ever run dry
Or would I drink the rain and the mountain snow
Fall in love with every sky, oh fall in love with every sky

Trying to listen to the trees but the wind won't blow
Trying to listen to the trees but the wind won't blow
Oh I've lain to rest beneath the oak and pine
Beneath the branches like fingers intertwined
Beneath the branches like fingers intertwined

And If I was a tall tree would I ever blow wild
Or would I dig my roots in this solid ground
And just settle for a while, oh settle for a while

If I wait long enough will the mountains move
If I wait long enough will the mountains move
I've got a lot to give oh and little to lose
And I've travelled this far just for something to prove
Oh I've travelled this far just for something to prove

And if I was a mountain would I tumble and fall
Or would I hold the earth like it once held me
When I was nothing at all, when we were nothing at all
