Shed your oversize clothes
Feel the dirt between your toes
And walk to the river, my boy
Be not a man, with your head in your hands
But a boy by the river once more
I'm taking the nights, and leaving the days
Because sometimes the light's just too tame
Be not a man, with your head in your hands
But a boy by the river once more
We had plans, there's no need to forget them
We're still playing in time
Be not a man, with your head in your hands
But a boy by the river once more
Burn your worries and shoot for the stars
Just don't anchor your spirit or deafen your heart
Because some ships will sail forever and ever
And ever and ever to roam
Shed your oversize clothes
Feel the dirt between your toes
And walk to the river, my boy
Be not a man, with your head in your hands
But a boy by the river once more
But a boy by the river once more
But a boy by the river once more
