Ocean Colour Scene - The Riverboat Song lyrics

Album: Moseley Shoals (1996)

I see double up ahead
Where the riverboat swayed beneath the sun
Is where the river runs red
Like a King who stalks the wings & shoots a dove
And frees an eagle instead
It is more or less the same as the things that you said

I see trouble up the road
Like the things you found in love are by the way
And like to cheat on your soul
Like the best & worst of thoughts that lose control
Before you lie on your bed

It is more or less the same as the things that you said
Anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow
Anyway for all the things you said tell me why does the river run red
Anyway for all the things you have seen tell me when will the river run green
And anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow

It is more or less the things you fail to say in your way that is your trouble
Like a King who stalks the wings & shoots the moon & the stars
And his double
It is more or less the same as the things that you said
I see trouble up ahead
Where the river boat swayed beneath the sun
Is where the river runs red
I see double - that is my trouble.
