Show Me the River

A friend reminded me of this song today. I fell in love all over again with it. This time however, with a different appreciation for it!

I've been a traveler of far away lands

I've got love on my mind, but death on these hands

com homeward angel, show me the way

or will fate leave me dead in the tracks where I lay

show me the river that leads to my home

back to the one that I love

show me the wind that constantly blows

and I will fly away, fly away home

since we were parted I know I have changed

you'll see the blood that was shed in the lines on my face

but now that I've turned my back on the fight

I'm gonna steal back my life like a thief in the night

I come to you through fire and snow

over high rolling hills and the valleys below

with all that I've suffered I'm still on this road

and if I hold you again will never let go.
