You Can’t Push The River

[Verse 1]

Fate arrived late

With its power

To trigger our shadows

To control

All we know

Late to the party

But it was always, always going to be my show

Where are we then if this is now?

[Chorus]

Just something

Taking me over

Pushing the river

My equal

Moving in slowly

Taking me over

You can't push the river

[Verse 2]

I don't know the time

I could guess the day

I'm feeling weak

I lost my way

Daytime arrives

With its bright touch

You trace my lips

With your fingertips

[Chorus]

Just something

Taking me over

Pushing the river

Your ego

Moving in slowly

Taking me over

You can't push the river

[Bridge]

Write

Right now, baby

Write that note

It's my right

To be on the cover

I am a dreamer

And I am your favourite, favourite

I still get confused between Henry and Arthur Miller

But it's taking me over

[Chorus]

You can't push the river

Just something

Taking me over

Pushing the river

My equal

Moving in slowly

Taking me over

You can't push the river
