Agnes Obel – Riverside
Where everybody goes to be alone
Where you wont see any rising sun
Down to the river we will runWhen by the water we drink to the dregs
Look at the stones on the river bed
I can tell from your eyes
You’ve never been by the Riverside
Down by the water the riverbed
Somebody calls you somebody says
swim with the current and float away
Down by the river everyday
Oh my God I see how everything is torn in the river deep
And I don’t know why I go the way
Down by the Riverside
When that old river runs pass your eyes
To wash off the dirt on the Riverside
Go to the water so very near
The river will be your eyes and ears
I walk to the borders on my own
To fall in the water just like a stone
Chilled to the marrow in them bones
Why do I go here all alone
Oh my God I see how everything is torn in the river deep
And I don’t know why I go the way
Down by the Riverside
Agnès Obel fuel to fire
Do you want me on your mind or do you want me to go on
I might be yours as sure as I can say
Be gone be faraway
Roses on parade, they follow you around
Upon your shore as sure as I can say
Be gone be faraway
Like fuel to fire
Into the town we go, into your hideaway
Where the towers grow, gone to be faraway
Sing quietly along
Pious words to cry into the under
Upon your shore as sure as I can say
Be gone be faraway
Oh what a day to choose
Torn by the hours
All that I say to you
Is like fuel to fire
Into the town we go, into your hideaway
Where the towers grow, gone to be faraway
Never do we know, never do they give away
Where the towers grow, only you will hear them say
Sing quietly along
Sing quietly along
