River Shannon

[Verse 1] Oh Shannon, I might be dreaming The stars fell down on the factory The cathedrals repeating, the light receding Bells on another day Have you ever seen my face Fast asleep and dreaming? [Verse 2] Oh Shannon, the lightning fell There's an army down by the riverside But I might be dreaming I can see that you don't believe me And I might be dreaming If I dip into your water, fall through my reflection I will shadow myself anyway Have you ever seen my face Fast asleep and dreaming? [Verse 3] And it don't seem right that I don't get no sleep at night What's the river going to know about leaving? [Verse 4] Oh Shannon, the soldiers are coming The guns are drumming the night away Rain, rain, go away, come again some other day When I got time for believing Have you ever seen my face Fast asleep and dreaming? Yeah! What is there left to believe in?! [Verse 5] Oh Shannon, I might be dreaming I might be wasting my life away Listening to you down on under the streetlight You shudder and beat the edge of the waterway And I know if I had time, I might dive in your water Lie right down in the evening rain I just want this pain, pain to go away Come again some other day When I got time for bleeding Have you ever seen my face Fast asleep and dreaming? And it don't seem right that I don't get no sleep at night What's the river going to know about leaving? [Outro] Oh Shannon, I might be dreaming
