Drown Me in the River

I dream of wastin' away
Like those good old sweet summer Sundays
When we still were fragile and young
With our hearts full of dreams and our heads filled with sun
Swingin' our arms in the night time blues
Sinking our fingers in the sea held cool
Find me fallin' with my eyes wide open
Drifting in your absence, not afraid of choking
And I, and I, and I
And you, and you, and you
I do, I do, adieu
Trace me back to you
Find my eyes
Tied between my shoes
Looking for those old steps that lead me back to you
To you
To you
Breathing softly down the nape of my neck
Burning me slowly while I wait for you to set
My face painted white like my ancestor’s kite
Pendulums swinging from the morning through the night
And I, and I, and I
And you, and you, and you
I do, I do, adieu
Trace me back to you
If your hand is true
(Drown me in the river)
Drown me in the river
