lyrics

Think it was you again
We were walking in the night
Until we came to the bank of a river
Rushing by

We couldn't go any further
And we can't turn back
You look at me and I know
We must cross

It's dark on this side
We can barely see
But a light shines down
On the empty space across

You take your clothes off
Then I do the same
Step into the water
Start to swim

It's cold and I'm lurching
Through the waves
I can't see you
Or the other side

My feet find the gravel
And I scramble up
Look to see if your there
Your silhouette

I didn't mean to look
But I've clearly seen
That you're deformed
The same as me

We put our shirts back on
I don't know what to say
You must have known
All along
