All we knew
We studied maps for the smallest roads
Train timetables to the farthest outposts
When life was like there's no tomorrow
They tore the houses down in our neighbourhood
Cleared it all with a few truckloads
One night out of the blue, I woke with this hollow truth
There's nothing left of all we knew
I saw a bareback rider
Down by the dark rolling river
I saw a sky so old
Waiting to unfold
In the town prostrated
By August defeated
In the logbook of your existence
Noughts and crosses of experience
Rest your mind and weary eyes
Days subside and then again rise
I saw a bareback rider
Down by the dark rolling river
I saw a sky so old
Waiting to explode
In the town prostrated
By August defeated
I saw a bareback rider
Down by the dark rolling river
A sky so old
Waiting for the flood
I saw a bareback rider
Down by the old rolling river
Train timetables to the farthest outposts
When life was like there's no tomorrow
They tore the houses down in our neighbourhood
Cleared it all with a few truckloads
One night out of the blue, I woke with this hollow truth
There's nothing left of all we knew
I saw a bareback rider
Down by the dark rolling river
I saw a sky so old
Waiting to unfold
In the town prostrated
By August defeated
In the logbook of your existence
Noughts and crosses of experience
Rest your mind and weary eyes
Days subside and then again rise
I saw a bareback rider
Down by the dark rolling river
I saw a sky so old
Waiting to explode
In the town prostrated
By August defeated
I saw a bareback rider
Down by the dark rolling river
A sky so old
Waiting for the flood
I saw a bareback rider
Down by the old rolling river
