I went and got four beers from the village store If you were here I'd've got four more Went for a walk with an old guitar Over the fields and through the farm I sat by the river where no children play Down where the banks all fall away There's nothing better that I can do Than sit right here, just waiting on you Throw my body in the river Put a stranger in my clothes Cos I will love you forever I suppose I think I'll have another week off work Go tell the doctor my back still hurts I can see better when I'm laying low I'm gonna go where the water goes Throw my body in the river Put a stranger in my clothes Cos I will love you forever I suppose
