Untitled River

from Free Range Muffins by Andrew Rodger

/

about

Written in Waterloo, Ontario in late 1999, or early 2000, Untitled River is from a very unique batch of songs created during that time period. Another song on this album, Maybe in Saskatchewan, is from that same era. It was a difficult time in my life, but it helped me explore a different style of songwriting.

I had not planned on recording this song, but it really wanted to be on the album! Everything happens for a reason. So, hopefully the person that needs to hear this song does...

lyrics

Where are all the words when I need them
Where are all the birds when I’m feeling grounded
Where is the sea when I’m feeling landlocked
Where is the me when I look into the mirror

Where is the sky
When my eyes are cloudy
Where is the cry
When the tears won’t come
What are all these dreams
I’m having when I’m sleeping
What are these dreams
When I’m trying to sleep

They’re all wrapped up in my thoughts of you
Like a perfect bow on a birthday present in June
They’re all wrapped up in my thoughts of you
Like a perfect bow on a birthday present in June
In June

What is the feeling when it isn’t love
What are these words I write if it isn’t you I’m thinking of
What is the colour of your favourite afternoon
What is the secret of the spinning room

What are the chances
Of finding another lifetime
What are these dreams
When I’m trying to sleep
What are the chances
Of finding another lifetime
What are these dreams
When I’m trying to sleep

They’re all wrapped up in my thoughts of you
Like a perfect bow on a birthday present in June
They’re all wrapped up in my thoughts of you
Like a perfect bow on a birthday present in June
In June
