I recognize suspicion

I see it in your eyes

I'm not the devil with the art of telling lies

I've got no more than a strong alibi

You're lacking evidence so I must deny



(Chorus)

And then the lightning comes

Somebody stole my heart

Now I can't explain

Where it is

I'm going down to the river,

Bathe in the water

It's a way to make a living

But will I be forgiven?

Down to the river,

Bathe in the water

It's a way to make a living

But will I be forgiven?

Forgiven



Tell me (tell me)

What's on your mind

You've got that look that says I'm leaving

I never wanted to hurt you this way

So now it's time I fade away



Chorus x2



Down to the river

Bathe in the water

It's a way to make a living

But will I be forgiven
