By This River Lyrics by Martin L Gore
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Here we are
Stuck by this river,
You and i
Underneath a sky that’s ever falling down, down, down
Ever falling down

Through the day
As if on an ocean
Waiting here,
Always failing to remember why we came, came, came:
I wonder why we came

You talk to me
As if from a distance
And I reply
With impressions chosen from another time, time, time,
From another time
Here we are   Stuck by this river,   You and i   Underneath a sky that’s ever falling down, down, down   Ever falling down      Through the day   As if on an ocean   Waiting here,   Always failing to remember why we came, came, came:   I wonder why we came      You talk to me   As if from a distance   And I reply   With impressions chosen from another time, time, time,   From another time
