Lyrics
On Indian River On Indian River I saw a man Fall from the sky He fell to the river Surfaced and laughed Gave a great cry I watched him in wonder Eyes like the sun Naked and strong As I floated toward him He disappeared Into his song He sang a song so deep and wide Falcons would fly, mountains would hide Until the rivers of change could take him somplace He's never been His song made me tremble Shook my canoe Brought me to tears But when he stopped singing I was alive Shriven of fear He came to me softly He touched my arm Opened my eyes I must have been dreaming Only a crow High in the sky And I have a song so deep and wide Falcons will fly, mountains will hide Until the rivers of change can take me someplace I've never been I've never been (Copyright 2009 by Mark Kaufman)
