Lady of the River - King Charles

Down in darkest Chelsea

Where all the riverboats lie

Of travellers and the river bums

And the old timers passin' by

Below the lonesome chaos

Far from any footskeppin' street

Towards the steely ocean

There’s a girl I long to meet

Baby won’t you come down row with me

Where all the river boats lie

In the end together we can try to turn the tide

Who knows who we’ll return our wings to some of those restless souls

Lord knows its what we’re in to now we’ve opened the doors

Oh where are you now my lady of the river

Are you worthy of your faith

For the power to drench your man in love is as strong as the driving rain

What do you want my river girl, do you see when you go down

In the sky above the river boats, is it your heart that begins to drown

Baby won’t you come down row with me

Where all the river boats lie

In the end together we can try to turn the tide

Who knows who we’ll return our wings to some of those restless souls

Lord knows its what we’re in to now we’ve opened the doors

Oh why do you cry my lady friend

The world is at your feet

Oh love is knocking at your door just dying to hear you speak

Why do you row my riverboat

Are you worthy of this pain

For what I thought was love in me

Just added to my pain

Baby won’t you come down row with me

Where all the river boats lie

In the end together we can try to turn the tide

Who knows who we’ll return our wings to some of those restless souls

Lord knows its what we’re in to now we’ve opened the doors

Baby won’t you come down row with me

Where all the river boats lie

In the end together we can try to turn the tide

Who knows who we’ll return our wings to some of those restless souls

Lord knows its what we’re in to now we’ve opened the doors
