Next Of Kin
We walked along the rocks for nearly an hourI caught the way you looked at me in the sunlightYou took something before you went in the showerTo help suppress the things that make you feel uptightAnd if I had known you couldn't swimWe'd never have gone inI left my love in the riverThe only one who seesI lost his hand in the currentIt was the life I wanted and I'd hoped forAnd now I am left sifting through the leavesThe sun's so hard I saw his skin through his t-shirtThe grass so tall we knew he wouldn't be foundWe climbed into the stream so no one would be hurtAnd in no time at all there wasn't a soundIf I had known you couldn't swimWe'd never have gone inI left my love in the riverThe only one who seesI lost his hand in the currentIt was the life I wanted and I'd hoped forSongtexteAnd now I am left sifting through the leavesNo colour to his skinInform the next of kinNo colour to his skinI left my love in the riverThe only one I seeI left his hand in the currentAnd now I am left looking through the trees Aus Songtexte Mania
