Down by the River
Riverside Reverie: A Love's Journey Through Muddy Banks and Open Skies
Lyrics
Down by the river, I went a little bit crazy
Being near the river caused me to act somewhat irrational or lose control.
When I, fell for a girl with eyes so blue, I was, I was playing guitar in dirty boots
I fell in love with a girl whose captivating blue eyes caught my attention while I was casually playing the guitar, not overly concerned about my appearance.
On these muddy banks think I'll plant my roots
I feel inclined to settle down and establish myself in this environment.
On these muddy banks, think I'll stomp my boots
I'm considering firmly establishing myself here by stomping my boots on the muddy riverbanks.
Your eyes so blue, arms open wide, you are my sweet sky
Your blue eyes and welcoming gesture make me feel like I'm under an expansive, comforting sky.
So I'll float on, with eyes open wide
I'll continue on my journey, staying alert and observant.
With eyes towards the sky
I'll keep looking upward, aiming for greater things or possibilities.
Well I, fell asleep in a boat and away I float, where I'll end up don't no-body know
I drifted off to sleep on a boat, uncertain of my destination or where I'll end up.
But, like the seed I can plant my foot, just, watch how deep I can, get my roots
Similar to a seed, I can firmly establish myself wherever I land, showing my ability to thrive and grow deep roots.
Oh, you can do with me what you will, no, I don't mind you're my moment trapped in time
I'm willing to be at your mercy, embracing whatever experiences come my way because you're a special moment in my life that I cherish.
Oh no, I don't mind
I'm okay with this surrender or lack of control.
Your eyes so blue, arms open wide, oh you are my sweet sky
Your presence, akin to a vast sky, gives me a sense of openness and comfort.
So I'll float on, with eyes open wide
I'll continue my journey, keeping my eyes open to new possibilities or experiences.
With eyes towards the sky
I'll remain focused on aiming for higher goals or aspirations.
