Let's go down by the riverside, where the cool clear water kisses the earth on both sides
How they sweetly collide, I want to go for that ride
Flowers bloom in the river bed, oh a moist mother nature brings a blossom crimson red
At least that's what they've said to my monochromatic head
Shades of gray color every day, and this thirst for the water brings an itch that won't go away
I'm cracking up like clay, oh how I need the riverside
I'm dreaming of the riverside
Dear god I begged and begged you, now I've got to ask my friends
I'm not concerned about the journey I'm just wishing for the end
I got to take that ride, don't care who's by my side
Picking up the loose ends and the strings attached into a box
I'm gonna ship em to the city where they're sure to get real lost
I gotta lose myself so I can find myself down by the riverside
My heart beats slow and wide, a whisper from inside,
I know you want to hide
Down by the riverside, how I want to hide down by the riverside
