Dead Man's Shoes

Things may yet get better
She say’s she knows I’m there
She say’s she knows I’m listening
But she doesn’t really care
She say’s she’s seen me walking
Out with someone new
I said good lord I wouldn’t
But do you mind if I do
So take me down to the river with you again
We can wash away those blues — what’s to lose
We’ll go dancing through flowers in the evening
When I lose — these dead man’s shoes
Speaking of salvation
As lovers often do
One thing can heal me now
To make love to you
Let’s do it in the moonlight
Where no one else can see
We’ll take the air without a care
Just you my love and me
So take me down to the river with you again
We can wash away those blues — what’s to lose
We’ll go dancing through flowers in the evening
When I lose — these dead man’s shoes
