|
I'm going down to the river, I'm gonna look for you |
|
I know you'll be waiting there, 'cause it's a woman's trick |
|
I'm gonna give you what you want 'cause you've been asking |
|
And I don't even wanna know your name |
|
But you'll remember mine |
|
You will remember my name |
|
You will remember my name |
|
You will remember my name |
|
Like the nights in the movies, I'll be waiting |
|
And the days in the heat of her vengeance |
|
You'll know what I've wanted, what she wouldn't admit |
|
I'll show her, I'll show the world, just what they asked for |
|
And they'll remember my name |
|
They will remember my name |
|
They will remember my name |
|
They will remember my name |
|
And what you want most will elude you |
|
And what you want most will elude you |
|
'Cause everything before it changes, seems to be made of gold |
|
Made of gold |
|
Made of gold |
|
Made of gold |
|
Made of gold. |
|
In some strange way I'm preparing myself for you |
|
I've been waiting all my life |
|
But I won't give you what you want, I won't fight |
|
I will live, and tell, and you will remember me |
|
You'll remember my name |
|
You will remember my name |
|
You will remember my name |
|
You will remember my name |
|
You'll try to hide me under the mattress with all your other short sins |
|
But I'll come back, the click in my spine will order our lives like a metronome |
|
You can't shut it off |
|
You can't shut it off |
|
You can't shut it off |
|
You can't shut it off |
|
And what you want most will elude you |
|
And what you want most will elude you |
|
'Cause everything before it changes, seems to be made of gold |
|
Made of gold |
|
Made of gold |
|
Made of gold |
|
Made of gold. |
|
And like the river, you will remember my song |
|
'Cause love is a heartbeat away from here |
