Versuri River Of Money
Lyric: Grant
It is neither fair nor reasonable to expect
sadness
to confine itself to it's causes. Like a river in
flood,
when it subsides and the drowned bodies of
animals have been deposited in the treetops,
there is
another kind of damage that takes place beyond
the torrent.
At first, it seemed as though she had only left
the room to go into the garden and had been
delayed by stray
chickens in the corn. Then he had thought she
might
have eloped with the rodeo-boy from the
neighbouring
property but it wasn't till one afternoon, when
he
had heard guitar playing coming from her room and
had rushed upstairs to confront her and had seen
that it was only the wind in the curtains
brushing
against the open strings, that he finally knew
she
wasn't coming back. He had dealt with the deluge
alright
but the watermark of her leaving was still quite
visible.
He had resorted to the compass then, thinking
that
geography might rescue him but after one week in
the
Victorian Alps he came back north, realising that
snow which
he had never seen before, was only frozen water.
I'll take you to Hollywood
I'll take you to Mexico
I'll take you anywhere the
River of Money flows.
I'll take you to Hollywood
I'll take you to Mexico
I'll take you anywhere the
River of Money flows.
But was it really possible for him to cope with
the
magnitude of her absence? The snow had failed
him.
Bottles had almost emptied themselves without
effect.
The television, a samaritan during other
tribulations, had
been repossessed. She had left her travelling
clock
though thinking it incapable of funcitioning in
another time-zone; so the long vacant days of
expensive sunlight
were filled with the sound of her minutes, with
the measuring of
her hours.
