mersey paradise

The Stone Roses

River splashes against the rocks
And I scale the slope
I hope the tracks wonââ?¬â?¢t
Lead me down to dark black pits or
Places where we fall to bits
If she were there Iââ?¬â?¢d hold her down
Iââ?¬â?¢ll push her under while she drowns
And couldnââ?¬â?¢t breathe and claw for air
She doesnââ?¬â?¢t care for my despair
Or is it me?
The one thatââ?¬â?¢s wrong?
You see it in the sea
River cools where I belong
In my mersey paradise
As I stare an oil can comes
Sailing by and I feel like
Growing fins and falling in
With the bricks the bikes the rusty tin
I swim along without a care
Iââ?¬â?¢m eating sand when I need air
You can bet your life Iââ?¬â?¢ll meet a pike whoââ?¬â?¢ll
Wolf me down for tea tonight
I want to be (I want to be)
Where the drownings are (drownings are)
You see it in the sea
River coolââ?¬â?¢s where I belong
In my mersey paradise

I want to be (I want to be)
Where the drownings are (drownings are)
You see it in the sea
River coolââ?¬â?¢s where I belong
Oh yeah
I want to be (I want to be)
Where the drownings are (drownings are)
You see it in the sea
River coolââ?¬â?¢s where I belong
In my mersey paradise
