[Verse 1]
Love takes time, we all agree
And time's not the easiest to cheat
The water changes one degree
When will the shiver of this river turn to sea?
The river does no good, no harm
Tempts us like pirates to its calm
Lover's shanty, devil's psalm
Goddamn this river and its shiver and its charm
[Chorus]
If you've got love's A to Z
Don't go dredging river bed
Use your fins and use your head
This river's hooked the floating dead
[Verse 2]
Our lives go bounding down the strewn
When will we realise minnow dreams
The frustration eating you and me
Our only wish, to be the fish that meets the sea
We cannot tell a he or she
But us fish can tell a we
We know the seed, we know the tree
When will my conker conquer thee?
Love takes time, we all agree
And time's not the easiest to cheat
The water changes one degree
When will the shiver of this river turn to sea?
The river does no good, no harm
Tempts us like pirates to its calm
Lover's shanty, devil's psalm
Goddamn this river and its shiver and its charm
[Chorus]
If you've got love's A to Z
Don't go dredging river bed
Use your fins and use your head
This river's hooked the floating dead
[Verse 2]
Our lives go bounding down the strewn
When will we realise minnow dreams
The frustration eating you and me
Our only wish, to be the fish that meets the sea
We cannot tell a he or she
But us fish can tell a we
We know the seed, we know the tree
When will my conker conquer thee?
