LYRICS
MEET ME BY THE RIVER
Well I found myself today dreaming of you
Y’know I got up got out and I left too
And even though the choice was my own command
I found myself uneasy in this land
Yes I’d always hoped that we might meet again
No I never coped it’s just the way it’s been
I’m longing for to show you but secretly I lie
Well times have changed I guess that’s by the by
So meet me by the river Mersey
Meet me by the river Mersey
Meet me by the river Merseyside
Maybe this time I can change your mind
Well I won’t feel no pain or feel no shame
If you just give me someone or something I can blame
You’re telling me it’s just the way it goes
I saw the strain creep in this time it really shows
Yes I’d always hoped that we might meet again
No I never coped it’s just the way it’s been
I walk down to the ocean and I suppose I must have cried
The waves whispered misery again I sighed
So meet me by the river Mersey
Meet me by the river Mersey
Meet me by the river Merseyside X2
Maybe this time I can change your mind
Maybe this time I can change your mind
