By This River Songtext
von Brian Eno & John Cale

Here we are stuck by this river
You and I underneath a sky
That′s ever falling down, down, down
Ever falling down


Through the day as if on an ocean
Waiting here always failing to remember
Why we came, came, came
I wonder why we came

You talk to me as if from a distance
And I reply with impressions chosen
From another time, time, time
From another time
