lyrics

Carry me away to the river
Carry me away
Tell his mother I am sorry
That the boy is gone

Take me for a ride down the water
Take me for a ride
Just a daughter sleeping under
A mother's son

Take your places
The curtain's lifting
Faces must face
The only truth
That you don't know
Where you belong

Ain't no big surprise why he left here
When we realized how he kept fear
And oh how I kept him near
Oh yes I kept him dear

Took me for a ride down the water
Swept away my pride
Made a daughter of a mother
Still, the mother won

Take your places
The curtain's lifting
Faces must face
The only truth
That you don't know
Where you belong
