Riverbanks
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The clock face has been heading south for hours now
And I don't know if I'm still underground
Should I stay for another drink?
I know it's getting late but, to hell with it
Ooooh,
Please don't break these riverbanks
Oooooh,
Just open your eyes, something beautiful is happening
Just open your eyes, something beautiful is happening
Oooooh
The stereo has broken
The air is hard to breathe in
And I don't know if i'm still on my own
Should I stay for another drink?
Or maybe I've seen what you've seen
See what you see
Just open your eyes, something beautiful is happening
Just open your eyes, something beautiful is happening
Ooooh,
Please don't break these riverbanks,
Ooooh
There's so much more to see
Ooooh,
Please don't break these riverbanks
Oooooh,
Just open your eyes, something beautiful is happening
Just open your eyes, something beautiful is happening
Just open your eyes, something beautiful is happening
Just open your eyes, something beautiful is happening
