Salt River

Cry me a river
So I can sail the world
So I can sail far, far away from here

Let me feel the wind in my hair and the sun on my skin
Let me taste the salty air

Cry me a river
So I can see my reflection in the water
So I don't have to look you in the eye

Let the wind tangle my hair and the sun burn my skin
Let me taste the saltiness of blood

Wild girl sailing down a salty river
Wild eyes crying wild salty tears
Salty tears carrying me far, far away from here
