The River Song Lyrics

the little river is blue and long

i sat by the side of it as everything went wrong

i got a letter from the dry city's heart

you say the water distribution system's come all apart

and my place here's threatened

but i had it in my mind

and your face was on the skyline, so sweet and so kind

let them come, let 'em all come down.

let them take a good long look around.

let them see if my rivers won't suit them.

let them drown.



the fish that swim there in the current

with their machine-like faces should be no deterrant

they'll all come toward me

and i won't move

i know where i stand, i have nothing to prove

because i had it in my heart that you were walking by

and the little river's waters became our separate skies

so let them come, let 'em all come down.

let them take a good long look around.

let them see if my rivers won't suit them.

let them drown.



'cause i had it in my heart that you were walking by

and the whole world dissolved leaving only you and i.

so let them come, let 'em all come down.

let them take a good long look around.

let them see if my rivers won't suit them.

let them drown.
