[Verse 1]
On the other side of the night she cries
Somewhere between the sheets and the skies
[Chorus]
She runs the river 'til the river runs dry
She runs the river 'til the day that she dies
[Verse 2]
A cold wind blows through her coiled chains
Searching for something to ease the pain
[Chorus]
She runs the river 'til the river runs dry
She runs the river 'til the day that she dies
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
A flash of red and she is gone
Sleeping in the womb of a song
[Chorus]
She runs the river 'til the river runs dry
She runs the river 'til the day that she dies
She Runs the River was written by James Skelly.
She Runs the River was produced by Rich Turvey & The Coral.
The Coral released She Runs the River on Fri Mar 04 2016.
According to James Skelly:
Paul Molloy and I worked on acoustic parts in different tunings for a week for this tune and when we got into rehearsal Nick started playing it on an old Lowery organ we’ve got. It sounded a lot more Coral, so Ian recorded it on his Tascam 8-track and that’s what we built...
