lyrics

I saw you fall when the rain set in,
The season never bothered you before.
The streets they’re leading you to where you’ve been,
Well the leaves are falling darling that’s for sure.
But there lies another corner of the world I’d like to show y’.
'Cause this living's only borrowed you for now.

When your game gets old and your heart is growing cold,
Baby we’ll go down to the river, down to the banks we knowed.
We can feel alive holding on against the tide as baby we go down to the river, down below the waterline.

I walked you back to your tenement,
The fire in your eyes a burning low.
It used to be this place would compliment beyond the bricks and steel we used to know.
You asked me could I wake you when it turned a quarter passed two,
But the bells of your alarm are ringing now.
