Down to the river where the birds fly low
And you sail away on the sunset glow
To the cemetery where your lover sleeps
Where the sunflowers grow and the foxes weep

Will you meet me there at the break of day
When the tides rise up and the birds fly away?
Little soldier, little sun, little blue eyed wolf
Sing to the mercy of the sky above

Down through the forest to the clear blue stream
Where the foxes hunt but are never seen
Parting water and sky, see what you've become
And the sunflowers bow to your kingdom come

And we run to the beat of the sunset drum
Through the poisoned fields of the midnight sun
There are ghosts in the air they can smell your fear
Better run for your life as the night draws near
