lyrics

you're not the river but i think you're flowing deeper
as the storm clouds glide overhead
you're not the ocean but i think you've set in motion
all the abstract things you once said

and i'm wishing you would lie for a change

you're not the planet earth, nor do you have its worth
you're getting ahead of the game
you're not the sun and sky there's no point in asking why
you're barely a dark cobbled lane

and i'm wishing you would lie for a change
