lyrics

I’m gonna bury my grief
In the brown and rotting leaves
Of this stormy winter
I’m gonna take that love
And all that was lost
And let it go

For my true love’s gone now
And I am left here alone
With my heart
That is hollow and dry
And withered

Take me down to the riverside
Lay me out and let my bones dry
I will see you on the other side
Leave me here while the waters rise
Lay me out I’m waiting for the boatman
To see me to the other side

And oh my love I’m weary
My soul is tired
My body aches
I pray that death will take me
And I’ll see my love again
Again

Take me down to the riverside
Lay me out and let my bones dry
I will see you on the other side
Leave me here while the waters rise
Lay me out I’m waiting for the boatman
To see me to the other side
The other side

I would feel the sun upon my face
Set sail with the wind at my back
Then won’t you lie me in the wildflowers
Down by the riverbank


Take me down to the riverside
Lay me out and let my bones dry
I will see you on the other side
Leave me here while the waters rise
Lay me out I’m waiting for the boatman
To see me to the other side

Take me down to the riverside
Lay me out and let my bones dry
I will see you on the other side
Leave me here while the waters rise
Lay me out I’m waiting for the boatman
To see me to the other side, the other side
