Lyrics:
In a perfect world, we'd be
Like a river, wild and free
They're all holding on to nothing
By having everything we need
You say, the world's
the embrace of the river's ebb and flow.
[Chorus]
Love like a river, deep and wide,
In the currents of time, they confide,
With each boat that sails, by their
mountains of the dead
With blood runs the river red
Hate breeds hate, escalation of violence
See the flying war machines
Dropping seeds of fire
Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies.
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
A girl with
Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies.
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
A girl with
flies lighting up the park
It might be you
it might be me
Sailing down the river for free
On an old tug boat called History
Year by year, the reservoir
But the bottle's half-empty, and the boat's swayin' slow
The river's callin' his name, but he just won't go
Crayons in his pocket, whiskey in his hand
radiator an' a Chevrolet coop
I handed it in
For National Defence
Settin' in a boat with a bucket of beer
Hadn't caught nuthin' but didn't much care
I guess
are bound yet by each others lives
Now I'm leaving this world
I will never forget the river flow
The pains and traps of life
I put my scars away
you just you just fill my head with empty thoughts
Coz I live by the river if you gotta run free
Take it in or leave it its no bother to me
I live by
A Ford radiator an' a Chevrolet coop
I handed it in
For National Defence
Settin' in a boat with a bucket of beer
Hadn't caught nuthin' but didn't
Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies.
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
A girl with
rise again,
Call the river by your name)
I want to float in through your door
Hand it on the wall, hang it all
But I want to be sure of one thing
Brick by brick the night eclipsed
Pricked by cuticle thorns
Dried the sleep on nursery slits
Into this life I'm born
Heaven's just a scab away
Miss ol' St. Louis, wish I was back
Picking my guitar by the railroad track
All them pretty women's, hangin' 'round me
Miss ol' St. Louis, how it
The river said
"La la la"
It said, "Shame on you"
The river said
"La la la"
It said, "Shame on you"
I go down to Chicano city park
Because it makes
Have you ever took a boat ride
Down the Mississippi
Well, if you do
You ought to take it on the Ella be
Yes, she starts off in St. Louis
on the bank of the river downtown
staring across at the lea
I cuddle my miss and I blow her a kiss
she gives a curt nod to me
The water flows by with a hum
Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies.
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
A girl with
the ripening air
I have seen you
In your fluttering dress
And your dry face of steel
As you're dragging your red rowing boat
Cross the forever fields
: Suzanne takes you down to
Her place near the river
You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night beside her
And you know that she's half
In the town of Reynosa, there's a beautiful river
That shines in the Mexico sun.
There are boats and they cross from one side to the other,
Little River Band
I can feel it floating away
Inch by inch, day by day
Love boat set itself free
Castaway, slipping out to sea
I can feel it
The river said
"La la la"
It said, "Shame on you"
The river said
"La la la"
It said, "Shame on you"
I go down to Chicano city park
Because it makes
