Rising Sun by Erin Durant Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hello wind, haven't seen you in years
Have you been out on the plains with the others?
I've been here, learning some rituals
Like how to truly love another
Been making mistakes, costing the game
But the only way I think

[Verse 2]
To be alone feels like a life of crime
But to fear the unknown is an uglier rhyme
A little afraid to write this down
To have been so loved, a true turtle dove
I'm going far, I'm going wide
I'm going back to the sunny side

[Chorus]
There is a house in New Orleans
A California bungalow that I've never seen
It's painted green, sits on Moss Street
And takes me some place that I've never been
The future's not mine to claim
Been calling out its name, but think I heard "no way"
I'm so tired and a little drunk
Just want you to hold me till my time is up

[Bridge]
Take me to the river
Follow the water to the sea
This is the land of the rising sun
Don't matter what you have done

[Chorus]
There is a house in New Orleans
A California bungalow that I've never seen
It's painted green, sits on Moss Street
And takes me some place that I've never been

The future's not mine to claim
Been calling out its name, but think I heard "no way"
I'm so tired and a little drunk
Just want you to hold me till my time is up
