River

Down to the river
With my bones all a shiver
Give the word to my mother
Tell my sister and my father
That on the shore lay my brother
Pale and smaller than I remember

Soft and foggy with the summer dew
Dark wind and trees will not remember you
Sand and sliver moon and river blue
And black tie I was in the heat of June
We'll all sing the same tune
Oh, we will not remember you
