To me this is a particularly dark love song

lyrics

We Rule The The River
Verse 1:
When the sunlight fades We rule the river,
Lit by starlight, We’ll be coming’ round
When the sunlight fades , We rule the river,
Rum runnin’ to a border town

Chorus:
We rule the river, til we drown
We rule the river, til we d-r-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-w-n
We rule the river,

Verse 2:
Ride with me now , My soul is approaching
the far shore as the moon goes down
Ride with me now The stars are exploding,
Rum runnin’, to a border town

Chorus:
We rule the river, til we drown
We rule the river, til we d-r-o-o-o-o-o--o-w-n
We rule the river,

Verse 3:
Come steer me home We’ll be silhouettes slipping’ round
Dark islands , just toward dawn
Come steer me home, And we’ll live or we’ll die here,
Rum runnin’, to a border town

Chorus:
We rule the river, til we drown
We rule the river, til we d-r-o-o-o-o-o--o-w-n
We rule the river,
2X
