Your love is colder than a foggy river
Flowin' o'er a heart of stone
You left me stranded on this foggy river
Driftin' helpless and alone
I can't escape this broken heart of mine
There's no freedom anymore
Heaven help me on this foggy river
Help me find a distant shore
There's no tomorrow on this foggy river
Only memories linger on
A mist of sorrow chills this foggy river
Everything i love is gone
Oh, i always knew that someday you'd let me down
I've got troubles, troubles, on my mind
I guess i knew to sail this foggy river
'til i leave your love behind
Spoken:
Yes, this love is colder than a foggy river
It's flowin' over a heart of stone
You left me here stranded on this foggy river
I'm just driftin' helpless and alone
Well, i always knew that someday you'd let me down
I've got, i've got troubles on my mind
I guess i, i guess i knew to sail this foggy river
'til i leave your love behind
Until i leave it all behind
Until i leave it behind
Until i leave it be¨c¨call behind, yeah,
I'm gonna mow you down
I'm gonna call your name, yes i do
I'm gonna call your name when i do
I'm gonna mow you down
Yes, i'm gonna mow you down
I'm gonna call your name
I'm gonna call your name
Yes i do
When i do
Yeah.
