Like a song I used to play
Familiarise myself with the melody
But the chords don't fit no more
The words are lost to me
I don't know
I don't know
It was the car crash comeback
That stopped you dead in your tracks
At the river
Where you sail away your dreams
It's the fear of a heart attack
That keeps you coming back to the river
Where all's not what it seems
Are these the streets we used to own
Used to own
We had it all but then we let it go
Let it go
And I'm so sorry for the things that I've done
I should've known
I should've known
It was the car crash comeback
That stopped you dead in your tracks
At the river
Where you sail away your dreams
It's the fear of a heart attack
That keeps you coming back to the river
Where all's not what it seems
All we are is sex and cigarettes
I still do my best to help you take off your dress
And as we walk through this lifetime of regret
Well you never know
All we are is sex and cigarettes
But I do my best to help you take off your dress
And as we walk through this lifetime of regret
Well you never know
It was the car crash comeback
That stopped you dead in your tracks
At the river
Where you sail away your dreams
It's the fear of a heart attack
That keeps you coming back to the river
Where all's not what it seems
Sail away your dreams
