"You Can't Push The River" lyrics

Fate arrived late
With its power
To trigger our shadows
To control
All we know
Late to the party
But it was always, always going to be my show
Where are we then if this is now?

Just something
Taking me over
Pushing the river
My equal
Moving in slowly
Taking me over
You can't push the river

I don't know the time
I could guess the day
I'm feeling weak
I lost my way
Daytime arrives
With its bright touch
You trace my lips
With your fingertips

Just something
Taking me over
Pushing the river
Your ego
Moving in slowly
Taking me over
You can't push the river

Write
Right now, baby
Write that note
It's my right
To be on the cover
I am a dreamer
And I am your favourite, favourite
I still get confused between Henry and Arthur Miller
But it's taking me over

You can't push the river
Just something
Taking me over
Pushing the river
My equal
Moving in slowly
Taking me over
You can't push the river
