David Sylvian - River Man Lyrics

I see your eyes light up like fire;
It's medicine to me.
But as the hunted live their lifes,
You're keeping out of reach.
So I keep running, falling,
Till I reach the water.
Run with me holy man.
But when I reach out,
I find I'm standing right beside her.
Now we're living,
Blessed with all the thunder in the world.
Now, should you ask me to come home.
To wake up from the sleep,
Like a boat inside a storm.
Is there no hope for me?
So I keep running, falling,
Wade into the water.
Run with me river man,
But when I reach out,
I find I'm standing right beside her.
Now we're living,
Blessed with all the thunder in the world.
So I keep running, falling,
Till I reach the water.
Run with me holy man.
But when I reach out,
I find I'm standing right beside her.
Now we're living,
Blessed with all the thunder in the world.

I see your eyes light up like fire;
It's medicine to me.
But as the hunted live their lifes,
You're keeping out of reach.
So I keep running, falling,
Till I reach the water.
Run with me holy man.
But when I reach out,
I find I'm standing right beside her.
Now we're living,
Blessed with all the thunder in the world.
Now, should you ask me to come home.
To wake up from the sleep,
Like a boat inside a storm.
Is there no hope for me?
So I keep running, falling,
Wade into the water.
Run with me river man,
But when I reach out,
I find I'm standing right beside her.
Now we're living,
Blessed with all the thunder in the world.
So I keep running, falling,
Till I reach the water.
Run with me holy man.
But when I reach out,
I find I'm standing right beside her.
Now we're living,
Blessed with all the thunder in the world.
