about

these lyrics are kind of uhhhhh ..... never mind.

Ruven Afanador was the photographic artist on the shoot. This shot was originally for the "Sanctuary" project, recycled for Gemini: Both Sides.
We flew to Jamaica for the shoot, and did amazing stills in waterfalls, old churches, ruins. Brilliant time.

lyrics

Deep River

Oh run run run
Oh run run run
Run through me, where you are I will find
Deep River, from my mouth to my south... and I want you inside

Rowing down your Nile, I thought about the file of little streams I'd been before, they were nothing more, my Mississippi Delta felt cha.
Honey, did I melt cha from a mountaintop, like me from below
Did rain fall down, form on the ground from a cloud of tears, then
come sweet and thick, milk honey rich, to the ocean of me

Deep River, run through me, run to me.
Where you are I will find
Deep River, from my mouth to my south... and I want you inside deep
River river run river river run
River river run river river run

Yes, the dams been opened, all of my emotions are rushing straight to you
and I knew you knew that man, but uhh
You don't where I've been, and the biggest sin, was I was there too long
my own little desert storm
The rain came down, formed on the ground from a cloud of tears, then
sweet, thick, honey rich, to the ocean of me

Deep River, run through me, run to me
Where you are I will find
Deep River, from my mouth to my south... and I want you inside deep
Deep River, run through me, run to me
Where you are I will find
Deep River, from my mouth to my south... and I want you inside deep

Roll me through your rushes I won't drown, won'w be afraid
Baptize me over again
Take me to, to that quiet place

Oh run run run
Oh run run run
Run through me, where you are I will find
Deep River, from my mouth to my south... and I want you inside deep

River river run river river run
River river run river river run
