Hannah wrote this song about her husband Tim, who’s also the bassist of the band:
He grew up in Papua New Guinea for the first 10 years of his life. His parents were missionary doctors. And he lived next to this river, where they bathed every night. A common thing that can happen to these missionar...
Old River Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In your heart kid, there's heaps of stuff
Growing wildly without you even knowing
It doesn't matter if you are tough
If you don't go there, it'll come to you and eat you up
[Chorus]
So go in slowly
[?]
Follow that old river
It'll take you to the place
Where you have a longing
Stand in the grace
And let it fall away
[Verse 2]
Once we started we could've stuck
What was bottled up now is overflowing
You forgot it for long enough
If you don't go there, it'll come to you and eat you up
[Chorus]
So go in slowly
[?]
Follow that old river
It'll take you to the place
Where you have a longing
Stand in the grace
And let it fall
Slowly
[?]
Follow that old river
It'll take you to the place
Where you have a longing
Stand in the grace
And let it fall away
[Instrumental]
