The dying light was nearly dead
|
by the time we reached the water's edge.
|
We saw the river beating on the river bank
|
Oh the way that it (something) the riverbed.
|
|
It's cold
|
It's dark
|
It's not for people with uneasy hearts,
|
But if you're with me on the other side
|
Strike up the band; we have survived.
|
|
Oh do they beat that drum to get you back home,
|
Or do they beat it to keep you away?
|
|
Don't be surprised at your regrets.
|
Don't be surprised that the water made you wet.
|
There's a shallow down river
|
Where the water will forgive you,
|
So spend your lukewarm bets
|
|
Follow me, oh follow me;
|
Allow me to play the voyager.
|
I'll try to keep as dry
|
As the hollowed out tree that
|
You would be wrapped in another man's fur
|
|
So Take a Dive
|
Oh Take a Dive
|
Oh take it out on the stepping stones that make the water rise
|
So Take a Dive
|
Oh Take a Dive
|
|
Ohohohohoh
|
|
Take that hair out of your damned eyes
|
While the waves are away
|
Now the sun will fade.
|
|
Do they beat that drum to get you back home,
|
Or do they beat it to keep you away?
|
|
Will you burn your bridges down
|
Singing lalalalalalala
|
|
Will you burn your bridges down
|
Singing lalalalalalala
|
|
Will you bang your drum to the blazing sound
|
Singing lalalalalalala
|
|
Will you bang your drum to the blazing sound
|
Singing lalalalalalala
|
|
Will you turn away?
|
|
How can you turn away?
|
