River Of Sorrow
Antony And The Johnsons

There is a black river

It passes by my window

And late at night

All dolled up like Christ

I walk the water

Between the piers


Singing

Oh

River of sorrow

River of time, river

River of sorrow

Don't swallow this time


For we all know the baby has expired

Long ago she was pulled from the mire

And no precious liar or well-wisher

Can return the love that was stolen


Oh

River of sorrow

River of time, river

River of sorrow

Don't swallow this time


Can you see the light

At the end of the dark passageway

Take me wit you towads this light

Into the darkness passing over the faces in the river

Hear me!

I'm whispering in your ear!


Oh

River of sorrow

Oh, river of time

River of sorrow

Don't swallow this time


Oh

River of sorrow

Oh, river of time

River of sorrow

Don't swallow this time
