Testo River Man

Betty came by on her way
said she had a word to say
?about things today
?and fallen leaves
said she hadn't heard the news
?hadn't had the time to choose
?a way to lose
?but she believes
I'm going to see the river man
I'm ?gonna tell him all I can?
about the plan?
for lilac time
if he tells me all he knows
?about the way his river flows
?and all night shows
?in summertime

betty said she prayed today
?for the sky to blow away
?or maybe stay
?she wasn't sure
for when she thought of summer rain? calling for her mind again?
she lost the pain?
and stayed for more

I'm going to see the river man
I'm ?gonna tell him all I can?
?about the ban?
on feeling free
if he tells me all he knows
?about the way his river flows
?i don't suppose?
it's meant for me

oh, how they come and go
