Big River Ballad

from Songs I Swore I'd Never Sing by Benjamin Tod

/

lyrics

I’m at the mouth of a big big river and
I’m surely gonna drown
I guess I’d like to taste that river and how far I’ll go down
Now I see it in your eyes, you know where I’ve been
And where I haven’t it’s just a habit
It meant nothing at all

Chorus

You’ll find me at the bottom
Of a raging river or a bottle
Grace will lead I will follow
Faithfully ‘til tomorrow
Lord knows I’m a liar

I’m at the mouth of a big big river and I know that it’s sink or swim
I’m drunk enough to test that river and how deep I’ll get in
Guess I used to have control Now I don’t know
What I’m thinking it’s just the drinking
It meant nothing at all

Chorus

I’m at the mouth of a big big river and I’m surely gonna die
But if I do or if I don’t we’ll meet on the other side
Guess I used to feel alive now I’m paralyzed
But I still feel it in my heartbeat
It means nothing at all

Chorus
