"Pain Lies On The Riverside" lyrics

"Pain Lies On The Riverside"

Aye
Aye

I have never taken life
Yet I have often paid the price
And you, you are a victim of this hate
And the guilt that hangs around your neck
Has got me locked up in a cage

You got to learn to live until no end, now
But first you must learn to swim
All over again, oh no, because

Pain lies on the riverside, yeah
And pain will never say goodbye, no, no
Pain lies on the riverside

So put your feet in the water
Put your head in the water
Put your soul in the water
Join me for a swim tonight

I have forever, always tried
To stay clean and constantly baptized, oh
I'm aware now that the river's banks, they are dry
And to wait for a flood
Is to wait for life

I've got to learn to live until no end
But first I must learn to swim all over again
Yeah, yeah, yeah, because

Pain lies on the riverside, yeah
And pain will never say goodbye, no, no
Pain lies on the riverside

So put your feet in the water
Put your head in the water
C'mon, put your soul in the water
Join me for a swim tonight, yeah
For a swim tonight, oh, my Lord

I've got to learn to live until no end
But I've got to learn to swim all over, all over, all over again
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, because

Pain lies on the riverside, oh, nana, nana
And pain will never say goodbye, no, no
Pain lies on the riverside

So put your feet in the water
Put your head in the water now
C'mon, put your soul in the water
Join me for a swim tonight

For a swim tonight, yeah
Got to swim all over, all over, all over, all over again
Got to live all over, all over, all over, all over again
Pain lies
On the riverside
