lyrics

Take me back to the river
where it all began
Started over in a quiet town
in a south facing land.

Turn your back to the water
stopped you where you stand
Wouldn't know your own reflection
if it stood and took you by the hand.

Don't leave me
lost somewhere along the line
I'll find solace in others
and offer words.

Chasing shadows into open spaces
I'm haunted by the crowds
Need a cure for this affliction I've acquired
Learnt too late, I let you down

But aren't we a little old for this
telling tales we've spun
Can't find the words to break the silence
when we're speaking in different tongues.

Don't leave me
in another place and time
I'll find solace in others
and offer words to the wise.
