I don't mind if the bugs get in the house
If it's in the service of my friends comin' in and out
Less the water splashed over the edge
Take what you need and please come back again
If you bear a heavy heart tell me how you feel
Start where you are you know i'm right here
If the streets they flood and you can't get through
If everyone goes mad like they're tryin' to
If the day should come
You do the worst that you could do
This world is like a river I'm on the same side as you
I should bring the chairs out of the rain
Sure miss you already, however long you stay
Sorry for the time that we spent mad
What a pity to have wasted any precious time we had
If you need a place to stay sleep here on the couch
My door is always open if you're up or if you're down
If the streets they flood and we know they do
If everyone goes mad like they're tryin' to
If the day should come
I do the worst that I could do
Oh this world is like a river I'm on the same side as you
Any place they try to drag you name
Know I'll never follow
My heart will never change
Everybody's got an axe to grind
Stay sharp just like you
I follow my own mind
Anybody says they know says they draw a line
Keep holding on to me and I think we'll be just fine
If the streets they flood and you can't get through
If everyone goes mad and we know they do
If the day has come
You think they really come for you
Oh this world is like a river I'm on the same side as you
