about

This song was written as a tribute to Mark Linkous of Sparklehorse

lyrics

Down by the river
See the sparkle
See the shine
Lost and found
Lost forever
In the twinkle
Of an eye

Did you lose your mind
Looking for an new sky
Did you hope to find a new high

Up on your rocking horse
You were ambient
You were one of a kind
And now the river's run it's course
Your light is spent
and you've left it all behind

Did you lose your mind
Looking for an new sky
Did you hope to find a new high

You said you got so sad my friend
Did the sadness get you in the end?
Leave you helpless
Leave you hopeless

When you broke your heart
You broke mine too
You broke mine too
and now there's a heaven
and a star for you

He treats each song as its own entity and therefore crosses many music genres. ... more
