There's something in the way
She moves me, to distraction;
I travelled all this way to try and make amends
'Cause heavy in the air
Are the words that she left hanging
I tried to walk away, but I only stand and stare.
The rain that comes
All of the love that was left behind is gone
When the riverman runs
Find me the girl who electrifies the storm
'Cause in a little while, she'll be gone...
I waited in the rain
My feet too wet to stand in
I shouted out your name
Behind the rainbow's end
But somewhere in the crowd,
She heard me jingle jangling
Like a memory that fades,
She slipped away again
'Cause in a little while, she'll be gone.
(The riverman runs!)
