Bruce Hornsby Miscellaneous Across The River She moved back around here thirty-five weeks ago today Oh down the lane At night she walks on the banks, and remembers how she Dreamed of rowing away And how she left one day She left with a driven look in her eyes Came back around with it still inside They said give it some time and youll forget about it too We know they always do Well I know Some fine day You will find your way Across the river Row down slow Theres a long way to go Across the river She was proud and so strong And she tried not to listen to idle talk Downtown where she walked They sit around and they say That she came back with her tail between her legs Like they always said she would Well I hear its better on the other side They say youll never do it so dont even try Well you may be beaten down with your closed mind But dont try to make it mine Well I know Some fine day You will find your way Across the river Row down slow Theres a long way to go Across the river Your wild days are through?is what they said I dreamed she came, when I was down and I walked where she led Standing on the shore She looks to the west with a look of longing That grass seems greener Theres a hard and distant prize It probably wont happen but I think Ill try Well even if it doesnt happen for me It still beats hanging around here Well I know... |
