I came up on the river
With each cuff up to each knee
You can take me from the river
But the river stays with me
All the rivers in my memory won't dry easily
Seems like i been walkin'
Since the day that i was free
You can take me off the road
But the road's gon' stay with me
All the roads in my memory won't end easily
Get me out of this house of mirrors
Lift my head up from this book of dreams
Set my down on country soil
Where every little thing is what it seems
Every place that i have lived in
Gives the rain a road to sea
You can take me from the raindrops
But the raindrops stay with me
All the raindrops in my memory won't dry easily
The country's like a mirror
All you are is what you see
You can take me from the country
But the country stays with me
All the country in my memory won't fade easily
Get me out of this house of mirrors
Lift my head up from this book of dreams
Set my down on country soil
Where every little thing is what it seems
