Current song lyrics
I looked out across the river today<br />I saw a city in the fog and an old church tower<br />Where the seagulls play<br />Saw the sad shire horses walking home in the sodium light<br />Two priests on the ferry, October geese on a cold winter's night<br /><br />All this time the river flowed<br />Endlessly to the sea<br /><br />Two priests came round our house tonight<br />One young, one old, to offer prayers for the dying<br />To serve the final rite<br />One to learn, one to teach which way the cold wind blows<br />Fussing and flapping in priestly black like a murder of crows<br /><br />All this time the river flowed<br />Endlessly to the sea<br /><br />If I had my way<br />I'd take a boat from the river<br />And I'd bury the old man<br />I'd bury him at sea<br /><br />Blessed are the poor for they shall inherit the earth<br />One is better to be poor than a fat man in the eye of a needle<br />As these words were spoken I swear I hear the old man laughing<br />What good is a used up world and how could it be worth having?<br /><br />All this time the river flowed<br />Endlessly like a silent tear<br />All this time the river flowed<br />Father, if Jesus exists, then how come he never lived here?<br /><br />Yea Yea Yea<br /><br />Teachers told us the Romans built this place<br />They built a wall and a temple and a edge-of-the-Empire garrison town<br />They lived and they died, they prayed to their gods<br />But the stone gods did not make a sound<br />And their empire crumbled 'til all that was left<br />Were the stones the workmen found<br /><br />And all this time the river flowed<br />In the falling light of a northern sun<br />If I had my way<br />I'd take a boat from the river<br />Men go crazy in congregations<br />They only get better one by one<br />One by one<br />One by one, by one<br />One by one<br /><br />I looked out across the river today<br />I saw a city in the fog and an old church tower<br />Where the seagulls play<br />Saw the sad shire horses walking home in the sodium light
