Oh the river, oh the river, it's running free
And oh the joy, oh the joy it brings to me
But I know it'll have to drown me
Before I can breathe easy
And i've seen it in the flights of birds
I've seen it in you
The entrails of the animals,
The blood running through
But in order to get to the heart
I think sometimes you'll have to cut through
But you can't.

Keep it up! (you can)
(I know) You can!

Just keep following!
The heartlines on your head!
Just keep following!
The heartlines on your head!
Keep it up!
I know you can!
Just keep following!
The heartlines on your hand!
Cause I am!

On the sea, on the sea and land over land.
Creeping and crawling like the sea over sand.
Still I follow heartlines on your hand.
This fantasy, this fallacy, this tumbling stone.
Echoes of a city that's long overgrown.
Your heart is the only place that I call home,
I cannot be returned, you can?

Keep it up! (you can)
(I know) You can!

Just keep following!
The heartlines on your head!
Just keep following!
The heartlines on your head!
Keep it up!
I know you can!
Just keep following!
The heartlines on your head!

What a thing to do?
Oooh
What a thing to choose?
But know, in some way I'm there with you.
Up against the wall on a wednesday afternoon.

Just keep following!
The heartlines on your head!
Just keep following!
The heartlines on your head!
Keep it up!
I know you can!
Just keep following!
The heartlines on your head!
Cause I am!!
