Lyrics

[00:03.58] What, what would I do
[00:08.14] If I can't have you
[00:12.52] If I can't have you
[00:19.56] What, what
[00:30.02] If I can't have you
[00:37.18] Here, here I am
[00:42.53] On this black river
[00:43.84] Dotted in time
[00:47.12]
[00:53.24] And the mangroves
[01:00.62] They grow
[01:04.55] Like our love
[01:11.32] Stronger than the time spent
[01:12.32]
[01:24.00] Down in the valley below
[01:28.38] Take, take my hand
[01:33.40] And push to the side
[01:38.08] And come inside
[01:44.15] And your hair it grows
[01:51.34] Around your ears
[01:57.53] Like a mysterious pose
[02:03.97] That's music
[02:09.41] To my fears, that will follow the years
[02:17.60] Down to the valley below
[02:20.79] Why did you come in the night
[02:26.03] You hardly like me
[02:29.23] You like people strong and free
[02:34.49] That's not like me
[02:36.93] I am chainscaged in
[02:40.16] Of my own sad nature
[02:45.22] How do you changes so fast
[02:48.41] Like my face in the looking glass
[02:55.10] I hardly recognize it
