lirik lagu the rescues - the city and the river
“the city and the river”
two centuries since i first saw you weave like a dancer around my heart
you grew wild when it rained
i dug deep into the slates so we’d never be apart
you, you always stay by me
you, you wander but never leave
and i’m the one who watches over you
that’s what i was built to do
laid the track
poured the streets
towers of gl-ss and concrete
in silence, you watched what i became
you lifted me up
said i’d stand at the top and all the world would know my name
you, you always stay by me
you, you wander but never leave
and i’m the one who watches over you
that’s what i was built to do
oh
love don’t you weep
you know we cannot keep
this moment here together
if you could only see
the beauty that i see
we’d go on forever
and as i turn to rust
start to crack
betray us
you, you haven’t aged a day
when it’s time for me to go
promise me that you’ll flow until the ocean
washes you away
you, you always stay by me
you, you wander but never leave
and i’m the one who watches over you
i’m the one who watches over you
i’m the one who watches over you
that’s what i was built to do
