Goldfish 404 - River Lyrics

I spent many hours
With the book unfolded
Looking in to this
Little world
I spin for you
Creatures made of moss and stone
That make this island world their home
I put squares of pavement down
A path for them to walk around
And find a place by the river's edge
A tent of leaves to make our bed
And the cover closes over
And we will wait for the dark to end
The cover opens up again
And we will go to the waterfall
And we'll sail on down there
Want to find out
Marry me
Up in my high window
Something in the trees
Up in my high window
I see something
Up in my high window
I see something in the trees
Oh, something impossible to mention
That is everywhere
Impossible
You had to speak and even as the words
Started to strain
The tone of the knot in your voice
And when it was your turn
You're afraid
You couldn't not burn
And when it was over your turn
You're afraid couldn't not burn
Over the thought of words that stumbled out
You couldn't listen
Your dry head shouts
And
And when the next one spoke
You reached for your sword
The hard wooden handle of the blade
And it could go anywhere
You can't help yourself
Grew slippery in your clenched drunken hands
Home of being all day tied up alone
Tent of waterfalls sees us off to sleep
Want to find out
Marry me
Ah - la la la la la la, ah ah ah
Creatures made of moss and stone
That make this island world their home
I put squares of pavement down
A path for them to walk around
And find a place by the river's edge
A tent of leaves
To make our bed
A tent of leaves to make our bed
And we'll wait for the dark to end
The dawn will wake us up again
We'll find our path to the waterfall
And we will play around in it
And the cover closes over us
I see something in the trees
Up in my high window
Something in the trees
Can I write a song to speak of what it is
Up in my high window
I see something in the trees
Something impossible to mention
That is everywhere
Impossible
You had to speak and even as the words
Started to strain
The tone of the knot in your voice
And when it was your turn
You're afraid
You couldn't not burn
You had to speak and even as the words
Started to strain
The tone of the knot in your voice
And when it was your turn
You're afraid
You couldn't not burn
