about

We used to sit on the bank a lot, watching people, waiting for someone you know, just in case.

lyrics

Sitting on the bank of a river
Me and a bottle of wine
Happy to the sound of the water
but I know I'm just wasting time

So help me along, sing me a song,
I'm gonna get my feet wet but I know I can't stay
Anything will do just a verse or two
and I'll sing you one back some day

I've come to the end of the bottle
Got no reason to delay
I'll watch it float down that river
Then I'll be on my way

So help me along....

Well I'm still sitting by that river
But now it's in the light of the moon
I know I shouldn't really still be here
I'll get going after one more tune

So help me along, sing me a song,
I'm gonna get my feet wet but I know I can't stay
Anything will do just a verse or two
and I'll see you all back some day
