Jump In The River

from Skin & Bones by The Aluskas

/

about

The B-side, ‘Jump In The River’ is its polar opposite, the song’s jazzy overtones portraying The Aluskas ability to move comfortably between genres and is a perfectly wistful goodbye to the summer.

lyrics

JUMP IN THE RIVER
Leap from rock to rock across a stream
Jumping so long you’ve jumped a sea
You’ve been swimming in the sands of the sky
Dreaming a name in the night
Polluting the minds of the youth
I’ve been burned so I’m trying not to love you
All you look for is what there is to gain
Material possessions took you away

Well the moon it cried and the sun just sighed
And the birds they fell from the sky
We were breathing dreams
Living in the trees
So let’s jump in the river again

The brisk sweeping air fills the room
The dream-weavers’ looking for you
So while you listen for the sounds in the song?
Do you ever wonder where you have been for so long?
Does it get lonely down there?
By the river you shiver but dare
To lose yourself the way you lost me
I’ll meet you where the river meets the sea

Well the moon it cried and the sun just sighed
And the birds they fell from the sky
We were breathing dreams
We were living in the trees
So let’s jump in the river again

Hold on to the dreams of within
Listen to the song that they sing
When you’re banished will you fly far away?
To forget what you felt yesterday
