Red River, Draft #7 {AB020-7-9}: November 30th, 1997
[from his laptop]
I lost my eyes away to you,
What comes round when I fade to blue, tell me...
I need my eyes, not to see with – now – just for a little peace of mind.
The river flows, where it's going – now – no one but I can know.
And when you're gone, I feel I'm near you,
And all those times, I couldn't, couldn't break my fear of you.
I need my heart, not to love with now, just so I know I'll make a start.
The river flows, where it's going – now – no one but I can go...
