"Down By The River" lyrics
"Down By The River"
Take me down to the river
Where I would not go before
Through the trees and the rushes
To a place we both know
And I'm feeling much younger
As I kneel on the ground
Dip my toe in the water
Of the river where I watched you drown
Na-na-na, na-na-na-na, na-na, na
Na-na-na, na-na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na, na-na-na-na, na-na, na
Na, na-na, na-na, na-na
Oh, when the river ran dry that next year
I could not find your body
Now I'm standing here, ready at last
To dive down and reach you again
And I long to be with you
Now these cold nights have come
Oh, I go down to the river
But the river will stop for no-one
Though I ask it it keeps flowing on
When I ask it, it tells me you're gone
Da-dow, oh
Da-dow, oh
Da-dow, oh
Oh, oh
Oh
