Mandolin

here she comes in candlelight
setting like a full moon over summer's eyes
in the colden light where water's gone
and the water says what water will be done
downstream and out of town
floating like a quick-forced scream's surrendering
and i called out her name when the elevator came
but it's much too late to be the same

down down never come again
overthrusted driving rain
down down all the way up
and she's running where the river takes her

took your love into the street
cover of the long tall grass of ecstasy
but the city's got to be my love
and i don't know where the river takes you
i remember hollywood
battery of lonesome girls who felt so good
i swore on her name when the elevator came
that the doors would close on all the blame

down down never come again
overthrusted driving rain
down down all the way up
and she's running where the river takes her
down down never come again
into the breach she felt the same
down down all the way up
and she's running where the river takes her

tore me through the world
lost the point of it
put the past away again
had to find that water to be right
but in spite of it
put the past away
meets the light of day

here she comes in candlelight
setting like a full moon over summer's eyes
where the cold lime like a water gun
and the water says what water will be done
takes a stream to centre street
floating like a quick-forced scream's surrendering
and i called out her name when the elevator came
but it's much too late to take the blame

down down never come again
overthrusted driving rain
down down all the way up
and she's running where the river takes her
down down never come again
into the breach she fell the same
down down all the way up
and she's running where the river takes her
running where that river takes her
running where that river takes her down
