Down By The River

Milky Chance · Sadnecessary [2013]

Down by the river

I was drawn by your grace

Into tempest of oblivion

and to the lovers-place

I was stucked in a puddle

full of tears and unwise

Dark doings now I know

that we've paid unlike



Honey I know hey

when we walked arm in arm

I felt like we can throw away

the falseness of our past

And I know too

it's been the hardest day for you

Let's throw them out the

window

that's what those lovers do



Down by the river

I was drawn by your grace

Into tempest of oblivion

and to the lovers-place

I was stucked in a puddle

full of tears and unwise

Dark doings now I know

that we've paid unlike



Honey I know hey

when we walked arm in arm

I felt like we can throw away

the falseness of our past

And I know too

it's been the hardest day for you

Let's throw them out the

window

that's what those lovers do



Ouhhhhhouhhh... down by river



Down by the river

I was drawn by your grace

Into tempest of oblivion

and to the lovers-place

I was stucked in a puddle

full of tears and unwise

Dark doings now I know

that we've paid unlike



Honey I know hey
