It was all my fault
I know that you were right
we went for a walk
after suppertime
I said that I was sorry
out underneath the moon
you put your arms around me
I smelled your perfume
chorus
lay me down
by the riverbank
leave your gown
at the garden gate
the grass is high
don't hesitate
there's no one else around
lay me down
oh my god
you make the air feel thin
swimming bare in the starlight
beggin' me to get in
the river feels like holy water
washing away my sins
come up for air
and we're eye to eye
soul to soul
and skin to skin
chorus
on the ground
and we'll be one with the river sound
can't find the words
there is no noun
but I can show you here & now
