Lyrics River - Labi Siffre

River

New day dawning
Down by the river
Sunday morning
River glitter
River mighty majesty queen, tell me where have you been?
Tell me
What have you seen?
River coming round the bend do you ever end?
Will you be my friend?
River will you think about me?
I’m not so sad right now but I can be
People know me
I know people
Still I’m lonely
What do I do, I come to you
River mighty majesty queen, tell me where have you been?
Tell me
What have you seen?
River coming round the bend do you ever end?
Will you be my friend?
River will you think about me?
I’m not so sad right now but I can be
What you are, people say that’s the only way and there’s no one else I’d rather
be than me
But being me isn’t half the fun it should be
You’re a loner
I’m alone
When I’m with you
I feel at home
River mighty majesty queen, tell me where have you been?
Tell me
What have you seen?
River coming round the bend do you ever end?
Will you be my friend?
River will you think about me?
I’m not so sad right now but I can be
River mighty majesty queen, tell me where have you been?
Tell me
What have you seen?
River coming round the bend do you ever end?
Will you be my friend?
River you don’t care about me
I wasn’t so sad before
But now I see
