Raven Katz - Revolution Lyrics

You and me
We were only children
Making mischief from the magic of the land
Dirty knees
Limbs a lovely tangle
Underneath the great oak table fast asleep

But the times kept us changing
Can't stop the basics
We've grown so much older
In a complicated swing

It's a virtue
When we make love by the bayou
I'll never let them hurt you
Singing your songs of revolution
Are you, sick of being on the run
Honey I'm not the only one
Humming your tune.

Silver light
Shining through the bramble
Leads me to you in the haven of the night

I'd sacrifice
Any name or fortune
For the depth of living life out in your eyes

And though time kept us changing
You can't stop the basics
And we've grown so much bolder
In a complicated swing

It's a virtue
When we make love by the bayou
I'll never let them hurt you
Singing your songs of revolution
Are you, sick of being on the run
Honey I'm not the only one
Humming your tune

Your rebel chorus rings from coast to coast
And every hacienda rattles with your legendary hope
To give the workers fairer wage
You're the northern star and sage
That feeds the spirit of voiceless in their rage

It's a virtue
When we make love by the bayou
I'll never let them hurt you
Singing your songs of revolution
Are you, sick of being on the run
Honey I'm not the only one
Humming your tune
