By the River

(album: Time Well Spent - 2021)

Maybe I'm the only one who's still
Stuck in the middle
Tell me, have you thought about us
Even just a little
Still following the same old map with nowhere
Else to go
I know it's been a minute, but I still just wanna
Know

Did you get home alright? (I wanna)
Call you, oh I just might (I'm gonna)
Are you alone tonight?
Tonight
Or are you holding someone new?
(Oh that's so like you)

Come and meet me by the river
In this night
I'll shake, I'll shiver
I'll be here till morning breaks
Come and meet me by the light
If you'll oblige, is it all right
I'll stay here till the city wakes
Till you come back to me
Tell me you'll never leave

Years have gone and I still keep your note in my
Back pocket
The details of our story secret, just the way you
Want it
Dazed and confused, with just no room to grow
I know it's been a minute, but I still just wanna
Know

Did you get home alright? (I wanna)
Call you, oh I just might (I'm gonna)
Are you alone tonight?
Tonight
Or are you holding someone new?
(Oh that's so like you)

Come and meet me by the river
In this night
I'll shake, I'll shiver
I'll be here till morning breaks
Come and meet me by the light
If you'll oblige, is it all right
I'll stay here till the city wakes
Till you come back to me
Tell me you'll never leave

This is the last time you're ever gonna hear me
Breathing (oh) your name under the night sky
And I've thrown all caution to the wind
Just so I could fight for this

Why don't you come and meet me by the river
In this night
I'll shake, I'll shiver
I'll be here till morning breaks
Come and meet me by the light
If you'll oblige, is it all right
I'll stay here till the city wakes
Till you come back to me
Tell me you'll never leave
