Cross the River on Your Own Lyrics


I know a way to kill the ripple from your touch
And what if I can only settle for much?
It stays with you
You're like a sky so drizzly
That I want
'Till I take it out on you
Show me how to keep you inYou be good to me
And I, I'll be good to you
Don't let go of your light
It's your best friend in the world
I hope you'll learn what Heaven knows
Who cares if I go?
I know a way to tell the middle from the start
And what if telling makes the brittle fall apart?
In time although my hair turns grey and grizzly
Stay with meSo we cursed a lot
And I'm ashamed of walking out
Oh it's just too bad, we got stuck in the past

We're hiding there in silence now
It sounds familiar
You be good to me
And I, I'll be good to you
I'm off to work
But I don't see you turnCross the river on your own
On the other side
You wanna go far away
On the other side
The riverbed
Follow us there
You be good to me
And I, I'll be good to you
Don't let go of your light
It's your best friend in the world
I hope you'll learn what Heaven knows
Who cares if I go?
So we cursed a lot
And I'm ashamed of walking out
And my thoughts are wrought with a shortsighted secret
And missing you
Why do you cry, Paddy?
Long as I've been alive
Old as I am
I've still no plan
I'm off to work
But I don't see you turn
My life was OK
I was counting my steps

Mew


Mew is an alternative rock band which formed in Hellerup, Denmark in 1995. The band consists of Jonas Bjerre (vocals), Bo Madsen (guitar), and Silas Utke Graae Jørgensen (drums). When on tour, Mew is supported by Dr. Nick Watts (Headswim) on keyboard, and Bastian Juel on bass (original bassist Johan Wohlert left in 2006). The band's music can be described as experimental pop or as singer Jonas Bjerre mentioned in a recent interview: "I think that we combine pop music with something that's much more experimental, in our own way. I don't think I would even try and describe it. It's difficult."
