Riverboat Song Lyrics - Moseley Shoals - Ocean Colour Scene

I see double up ahead 

Where the riverboat swayed beneath the sun 

Is where the river runs red 

Like a King who stalks the wings and shoots a dove 

And frees an eagle instead 

It's more or less the same as the things that you said 

I see trouble up the road 

Like the things you found in love are by the way 

And like to cheat on your soul 

Like the best and worst of thoughts that lose control 

Before you lie on your bed 

It's more or less the same as the things that you said 

Anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow 

Anyway for all the things you said tell me why does the river run red 

Anyway for all the things you've seen tell me when will the river run green 

And anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow 

It's more or less the things you fail to say in your way that's your trouble 

Like a King who stalks the wings and shoots the moon and the stars 

And his double 

It's more or less the same as the things that you said 

Anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow 

Anyway for all the things you said tell me why does the river run red 

Anyway for all the things you've seen tell me when will the river run green 

And anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow
