Down by the River Lyrics

Down by the river, I was drawn by your grace
Into depths of oblivion and to the lovers-place
I was stuck in a puddle, full of tears and unwise
Dark doings now I know, that we've paid unlike

Honey I know, hey when we walked arm in arm
I felt like we can throw away the falseness of our past
And I know too it'’s been the hardest days for you
Let’'s throw them out the window
That’s what those lovers do

Down by the river, I was drawn by your grace
Into tempest of oblivion and to the lovers-place
I was stuck in a puddle, full of tears and unwise
Dark doings now I know, that we've paid unlike

Honey I know, hey when we walked arm in arm
I felt like we can throw away the falseness of our past
And I know too it'’s been the hardest days for you
Let’'s throw them out the window
That’s what those lovers do

Ooh, down by river
Ooh, down by river
Ooh, down by river
Ooh, down by river

Down by the river, I was drawn by your grace
Into tempest of oblivion and to the lovers-place
I was stuck in a puddle, full of tears and unwise
Dark doings now I know, that we've paid unlike

Honey I know, hey when we walked arm in arm
I felt like we can throw away the falseness of our past
And I know too it'’s been the hardest days for you
Let’'s throw them out the window
That’s what those lovers do

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

I'm pretty sure he's saying "into DEPTHS of oblivion" which makes considerably more sense.

The booklet in the CD gives the lyrics for some of the songs. It's tempest, but I agree with you on that one.

@andrew9322....Tempest makes sense. Tempest means "a violent storm". Oblivion is "the state of being unaware or unconscious of what is happening"

Ahh, touche. Wasn't aware there was an official lyric. I stand corrected!

This is my favorite song. It also reminds me of my Ex which I don't like.

Also if anyone knows what country the band is from reply to this I already know what it is.
:P
