Find The River

Lyrics Translation

Hey now, little speedy head
The read on the speed meter says
You have to go to task in the city
Where people drown and people serve
Don't be shy
Your just deserve
Is only just light years to go

Me, my thoughts are flower strewn
Ocean storm, bayberry moon
I have got to leave to find my way
Watch the road and memorize
This life that pass before my eyes
Nothing is going my way

The ocean is the river's goal
A need to leave the water knows
We're closer now than light years to go

I have got to find the river
Bergamot and Vetiver
Run through my head and fall away
Leave the road and memorize
This life that pass before my eyes
Nothing is going my way

There's no one left to take the lead
But I tell you and you can see
We're closer now than light years to go
Pick up here and chase the ride
The river empties to the tide
Fall into the ocean

The river to the ocean goes
A fortune for the undertow
None of this is going my way
There is nothing left to throw
Of Ginger, lemon, indigo
Coriander stem and rose of hay
Strength and courage overrides
The privileged and weary eyes
Of river poet search naivete
Pick up here and chase the ride
The river empties to the tide
All of this is coming your way

Hey now, little speedy head
Ei agora, pequena cabeça rápida
The read on the speed meter says
A leitura no velocímetro diz
You have to go to task in the city
Você tem que ir para a tarefa na cidade
Where people drown and people serve
Onde as pessoas se afogam e as pessoas servem
Don't be shy
Não seja tímido

Está apenas a anos-luz de distância
Me, my thoughts are flower strewn
Eu, meus pensamentos estão cheios de flores
Ocean storm, bayberry moon
Tempestade oceânica, lua de murta
I have got to leave to find my way
Eu tenho que sair para encontrar meu caminho
Watch the road and memorize
