Paddy Gibney - Where Rivers Run Green

When this life scares me
Into your arms I run
I run to your green fields
And your skies of vacant sun

As the shadows crawl across your face
A soft rain does fall
And I can see you from the clouds in the sky
I have come to heed your call

Ageless streets, A simple life
Rainy Days and Rainy nights
Oh how long must I fight this fight?
I'm losing sight of all my dreams
Where rivers run green

When first I left your warm embrace
My life had just begun
And if they question who I am
I will answer I am your son

My heart, it longs for rest and peace
But I find myself in two (torn in two)
Torn between a place that I love
And what I have to do

Ageless streets, a simple life
Those rainy days bring those rainy nights
Oh how long must I fight this fight?
I'm losing sight of all you mean
Where rivers run green

Oh how long must I fight this fight?
I'm losing sight or so it seems
Where the rivers run green
Where the rivers run green
Where the rivers run green
Where the rivers run green
