Riverman Lyrics

One, two, three, four

There's something in the way, she moves me to distraction
I traveled all this way to try and make amends
'Cause heavy in the air are the words that she left hanging
I tried to walk away but I only stand and stare

The rain that comes
All of the love that was left behind
Is gone
When the Riverman runs
Find me the girl who electrifies the storm
In a little while she'll be gone

(Maybe)

I waited in the rain
My feet turned wet from just standing
I shouted out my name
Behind a rainbow's end
But somewhere in the crowd
She heard me jingle janging
Like a memory that fades
She slipped away again

The rain that comes
All of the love that was left behind
Is gone
When the Riverman runs
Find me the girl who electrifies the storm
The rain that comes
All of the love that was left behind
Is gone
When the Riverman runs
Find me the girl who electrifies the storm

And in a little while she'll be gone

The Riverman run
The Riverman run
The Riverman run
The Riverman run

What is the Meaning of Riverman?

Picture the emotional journey of missing someone who had a profound impact on your life. Noel Gallagher’s "Riverman" feels like a soul-searching reflection on love that’s lost but not forgotten. The protagonist is haunted by the memory of a woman who moved him deeply, yet remains just out of reach. He’s stuck in a loop—trying to make amends and find closure while grappling with the weight of her absence. The rain and the Riverman symbolize the inevitability of this emotional flow, as feelings ebb and fade. Ultimately, he’s left standing alone, a testament to both his longing and the unyielding passage of time. #LoveAndLoss #Memories
