"The Man In The Water" lyrics

There's a man in the river
Policemen standing
In a circle, smoking
Round the man
Man in the water
Who sees nothing but circles

Could have been a fisherman
Could have dived for pearls
Could have found the answer
In the watery world
Could have been a builder
Could have found the key
Could have run with the river
And ended in the sea

Did he run with the river?
Did he run with the river?

No more questions
Just the river's answer
For the man in the water
His wife at the window
Cursing the cameras
And the man in the water

Could have been a fisherman
Could have dived for pearls
Could have found the answer
In the watery world
Could have been a builder
Could have found the key
Could have run with the river
And ended in the sea

Did he run with the river?
Did he run with the river?
Did he run with the river?
Did he run with the river?

Is there a light at the window?
A candle burning
A young girl turning
And a heart gone cold

Could have been a fisherman...

Some dark Sunday
The women walking
Down by the water
They speak of a diary
The missing pages
And the man

Could have been a fisherman
Could have dived for pearls
Could have found the answer
In the watery world
Could have been a builder
Could have found the key
And the way I feel tonight
Suppose he could have been me

Going to run with the river
Going to run with the river
Going to run with the river
Going to run with the river
Going to run with the river
Going to run with the river
