[00:15.99]Spit into the center of your hometown,
[00:19.30]there are leaves in the street,
[00:21.06]and there are friends around you now.
[00:23.90]All the days of your life in a line.
[00:28.70]
[00:31.39]All the way it seemed by 89
[00:35.64]
[00:38.96]But it's not all right.
[00:41.27]It's not even close to all right.
[00:45.02]Down a hall in your house,
[00:46.96]down a road in December
[00:48.64]（Down, down, down the deep river,
[00:50.02]down, down, down the deep river）
[00:52.45]Down a hall in your house, down a road in December
[00:56.08]（Down, down, down the deep river,
[00:57.58]down, down, down the deep river）
[00:59.83]We lie awake at night in a tent and I say,
[01:03.01]Tell me about your uncle and his friend
[01:05.11]because they seem like very bad men.
[01:08.98]Well we oughtta keep away from them.
[01:13.70]
[01:14.63]Bend in the road back there,
[01:16.57]we saw the place to go.
[01:18.88]
[01:22.38]Tell me 'bout the greatest
[01:24.11]show or the greatest movie you know
[01:27.55]or the greatest song
[01:28.18]that you taped from off the radio.
[01:31.25]Play it again and again it
[01:32.49]cuts off at the ending though.
[01:35.74]
[01:36.68]Tell me I'm always gonna
[01:38.18]be your best friend.
[01:39.60]Now you said it one time,
[01:41.12]why don't you say it again?
[01:43.18]All the way down the line
[01:45.06]to where the telephone ends
[01:46.88]come on and shout it on down the wire.
[01:49.68]
[01:52.87]And it's not all right.
[01:55.18]It's not even close to all right.
[01:58.68]Down a hall in your house,
[02:00.51]down a road in December
[02:02.31]（Down, down, down the deep river,
[02:04.12]down, down, down the deep river）
[02:06.18]Down a hall in your house,
[02:07.87]down a road in December
[02:09.74]（Down, down, down the deep river,
[02:11.37]down, down, down the deep river）
[02:13.56]And as the rescue party,
[02:15.76]the volunteer team ah,
[02:17.53]they're just kids of eighteen,
[02:19.15]and it's the worst thing
[02:20.27]they've seen they're standing all around that tree,
[02:22.90]and I'm so sorry that I can't stop crying.
[02:26.55]
[02:28.24]（Oh, I know.）
[02:29.68]
[02:43.62]Shivering from the late fall cold,
[02:46.43]I felt like a solid ghost.
[02:49.05]I ran and then I couldn't slow.
[02:52.24]My father found me though,
[02:54.36]my father took me home.
[02:56.61]
[02:57.80]He said, Oh, son,
[02:58.80]I saw you get knocked down,
[03:01.12]and I ran out I bet your head was spinning.
[03:05.19]With that bright pain you stunned,
[03:07.31]when you've only just begun
[03:09.06]to be only just beginning.
[03:10.81]
[03:12.57]Tossed in the viper pit,
[03:14.45]all those feelings and fears,
[03:16.21]and all that difficult shit in
[03:18.24]all those tender years.
[03:20.05]There was something in the air;
[03:21.99]something gathered in the air.
[03:23.86]Something singing in the wind.
[03:26.36]I'll be your fighter and you'll be my mirror.
[03:30.18]And you'll be all right because I'll be right here.
[03:34.30]Oh kid, now I'm not going anywhere.
[03:36.61]I swear I'll try to not be going anywhere.
[03:40.86]
[03:43.50]Though it's not all right. It is so far from all right.
[03:48.57]We'll make it into a choice somehow.
[03:51.52]I don't know, but you'll have a choice somehow.
[03:56.90]Down a hall in your house, down a road in December
[04:00.79]（Down, down, down the deep river, down, down, down the deep river）
[04:04.28]We can never go back; we can only remember
[04:08.16]（Down, down, down the deep river,
[04:09.72]down, down, down the deep river）
[04:13.26]
[04:26.58]Maybe they told you 'bout the summer sky,
[04:29.17]maybe they said there's a great gold spirit in the summer sky
[04:34.42]or all your friends （all your best, best friends）
[04:37.50]are gonna gather around your bed at night.
[04:42.63]Well that'll make it all right
[04:44.25]because it is still so far from all right.
[04:47.63]
[04:51.19]Oh, kid, I know.
[04:54.07]
[04:55.88]Down a hall in your house, down a road in December
[04:59.56]（Down, down, down the deep river, down, down, down the deep river）
[05:03.46]Up the stairs four flights, son; can you feel my heart shiver?
[05:07.24]（Down, down, down the deep river, down, down, down the deep river）
[05:10.79]Wakin' in the dawn with that dream getting dimmer and dimmer.
[05:14.97]
[05:16.68]I said, Are we going down the deep river? Down the deep river?
[05:25.38]
[05:31.14]Why don't you say you still see it, say you remember? Are we going down?
[05:44.85]
[05:47.98]Are we going down the deep river? Because I know it's scary, baby.
