In a River

Slide into the cool mud
Underneath the pines
Somewhere to your right or left
Is my body you can find

We are swimming with no clothes on
In a river in the dark
And I am holding on to you, boy
In the faint light of the stars

So you wade out across the marsh
Water up to your waist
Carry our stuff above your head
‘Til the dune comes to a crest

We are swimming with no clothes on
In a river in the dark
And I am holding on to you, boy
In the faint light of the stars

But sometimes I feel it
In a dream I know I been there
We were sleeping by the ocean
We were laughing on the warm sand

We stay up all night
And we wake up in the sunlight
We got dreams we keep together
We got time to spend, oh hell yeah

We are swimming with no clothes on
In a river in the dark
And I am holding on to you, boy
In the faint light of the stars

We are lying
On the beach now
Everything is warm
We are staying up
Through a wild night
In the faint light
Of the headlights
Of passing cars
