The River Lyrics - Build A Rocket Boys! - Elbow

I walked with the river in kind of a dream 

Hand in hand, the all-knowing river and me 

To the clamour of rushes and deeply barren trees 

A drunk making blossom, the blush to be seen 

I told him my sorrows and broken-down dreams 

Confessed every lie, replayed every scene 

He openly wept as he listened to me 

And then, with the sun in the west, he showed me the sea
