Grief Came Riding

歌詞

A grief came riding On the wind Up the sun on river Thames I was sittin' on the bank with my mouth open When I felt it entering I began thinkin' about our wedding day And how love was a vow I was thinkin' about the chamber door Only we can enter now I began thinkin' about our ancient friends And of kissin' them goodbye And then the wind blew under Battersea bridge And a tear broke from my eye I started thinkin' about London And nothing good ever came from this town and if the Thames weren't so filthy I would jump in the river and drown Don't be afraid Come on down I'm just sittin' here Thinking loud Now look there just blow the water See the saviour of the human race Where the fishes and the frogs Has found his final resting place Blowin' people far apart Blowin' others so they collide Blowin' some poor bastard right out of the water blowin' another one over the side Hear the ancient iron bridge And listen to it groan with the weight of a thousand people Leavin' or returning home To their failures To their bordoms To their husbands And their wife's who are carving them up for dinner before they even arrive Don't be afraid Come on down I'm just sittin' here And thinkin' of love And look they just blow the water See the saviour of the human race Where the fishes and the frogs Has found his final resting place Don't be afraid Come on down I'm just sittin' here Thinkin' of love
