Dispatch - Melon Bend Lyrics

Saw you in the moss
See the birds up above
You stood up with a shout
And said that it's time

We ran through the oak hall woods
Saw the shadows on car hoods
Swinging on the old
Telephone lines

Oh, my love
I think that I could run forever
Make you stay so true
And not be lonely ever
Now my world come right
I will swim the river
Until my bones give up

You said that you were born
Daddy took you home
He whispered to the ground
Ever softly

Left the shovel on the stone
Left the hill alone
Drove like the road
Was the only life to know

Oh, my love
I think that I could run forever
We don't stand a chance
We will run the river
I swore on your bed
I will be forever
Until my bones give up

And the birds they land
And I see both of you are there
And we are walking
We are walking

And as you turn around
I see your hands, they look like mine
And we are walking
We are walking back toward the hill

Oh, my love
I think that I could run forever
We don't stand a chance
Tow now more than ever
Make you stay so true
And be lonely never
Until your bones give up

Oh, my love
I think that I could run forever
We don't stand a chance
We will run the river
Now my world come right
I will never leave her
Until our bones give up
