Agnes Obel "Riverside" lyrics

Riverside

Down by the river by the boatsWhere everybody goes to be aloneWhere you wont see any rising sunDown to the river we will run

When by the water we drink to the dregsLook at the stones on the river bedI can tell from your eyesYou've never been by the riverside

Down by the water the riverbedSomebody calls you somebody saysswim with the current and float awayDown by the river everyday

Oh my GodI see how everything is torn in the river deepAnd I don't know why I go the wayDown by the riverside

When that old river runs pass your eyesTo wash off the dirt on the RiversideGo to the water so very nearThe river will be your eyes and ears

I walk to the borders on my ownTo fall in the water just like a stoneChilled to the marrow in them bonesWhy do I go here all alone

Oh my GodI see how everything is torn in the river deepAnd I don't know why I go the wayDown by the riverside
