rise to me

Singer:decemberists, the

big mountain

wide river

there's an ancient call

these tree trunks these stream beds

leave our bellies full

they sing out

i am gonna stand my ground

you rise to me and i'll blow you down

i am gonna stand my ground

you rise to me and i'll blow you down

hey henry

can you hear me

let me see those eyes

this distance

between us

can seem a mountain size

but boy

you are gonna stand your ground

they rise to you you'll blow them down

let me see you stand your ground

they rise to you you'll blow them down

my darling

my sweetheart

i am in your sway

two cold climbs

come spring time

so let me hear you say

my love

i am gonna stand my ground

they rise to me and i'll blow them down

i am gonna stand my ground

they rise to me and i'll blow them down

cause i am gonna stand my ground you rise to me and i'll blow you down
