I see by your coat you traveled far and wide.

Verse 1:
When you smile at me, the world feels less sad
In the language of eyes, we've always known
A tender promise shared by hearts gone bad

I see by your coat, you've traveled far and wide
One question lingers as the stars collide
Who walked away with the soul intact

Chorus:
River stones and open skies, flowing free and easy
Easy, like the way it’s meant to be
Figures on the shoreline, just let us be
Free and easy

Verse 2:
Taste these wild fruits, fresh from the vine
I've lived on them for weeks, they taste like wine
Keeping us strong, through the passage of time

Sail away where the morning sun kisses the land
Sail away where the winds sing and the trees stand grand
Take a brother by the hand
Lead him from this now toxic land

Chorus:
River stones and open skies, flowing free and easy
Easy, like the way it’s meant to be
Figures on the shoreline, just let us be
Free and easy

Bridge:
Terror grips us as we watch you fall
All we can do is echo your call
Staring as our human ties unravel and sprawl
We are leaving
You don’t need us

Verse 3:
Take a sister by the hand
Lead her from this toxic land
To a place where laughter feels unplanned
We are leaving
You won’t need us

Chorus:
River stones and open skies, flowing free and easy
Easy, like the way it’s meant to be
Figures on the shoreline, just let us be
Free and easy

Outro:
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Ride the river, ride the river, ride the river
Go ride the river, oh ride the river, oh ride the river, c’mon
