Lace your heart with mine
Let your sleeping soul take flight
Take me through the night
Down, down, down by the river
Down, down, down by the river (by the river, by the river)
Hanging moon in fog
Mists will lead where you belong
Sweep me off my feet
Down, down, down by the river
Down, down, down by the river, ooh
Down, down, down by the river (by the river, by the river)
Inky embers (inky embers)
Swirl and dance (swirl and dance)
Just leap the flames to take a chance
To be with me tonight
Take my hand and hold it tight
'Cause you and I are everywhere
The night is young
We're goin' down, down, down by the river (by the river, by the river)
Down, down, down by the river
Down, down, down by the river (by the river, by the river)
Don't wake me up, just leave me there dreaming

Thank you.
