Riverside

I will wait for you, by the riverside

By the river

It's quiet down there at night

By the riverside

Let's fish for gold and throw off our rags

Paint a new scene where the shopping trolley snags, and we're in

Into the river

I will watch you sink, to the river bed

Ripped then washed then laid

On the river bed

I do believe that I had no choice

You have another now you're paying the price, for the high-life

Into the river

I turn back round to head for land, and saw the oyster in my hand

Spit the pearl into the sea

I paddled franticly back down, to where I left there on the ground

Where I put her jelly off to sleep

I will wait for you, to come up for air

Say my sorry's, praise the lord

It will be good to have you here

Things ebb before they flow

Just like the summer, needs to have snow

We need light, we need dark

Before you take off, you must come down

Come down, come down, come down, come down, come down, come down

Down, down, down, down, down by the river

There is life and then there is none

We need moisture, combined with the sun

So we can tap-dance

Create lights

Into the river we climb in at night
