Things may yet get better she say's she knows I'm there she say's she knows I'm listening but she doesn't really care She say's she's seen me walking out with someone new I said good lord I wouldn't but do you mind if I do So take me down to the river with you again we can wash away those blues - what's to lose we'll go dancing through flowers in the evening when I lose - these dead man's shoes speaking of salvation as lovers often do one thing can heal me now to make love to you let's do it in the moonlight where no one else can see we'll take the air without a care just you my love and me So take me down to the river with you again we can wash away those blues - what's to lose we'll go dancing through flowers in the evening when I lose - these dead man's shoes
