There's a man in the river
He is standing in a circle, smoking
Round a man
Man in the water
This is nothing but circles

Could have been a fisherman
Could have dived for pearls
Could have found the answer in the watery world
Could have been a builder
Could have found the key
Could have run with the river
And then in the sea

Did he run with the river?
Did he run with the river?

No more questions
Just the river's answer
For the man in the water
His wife at the window
Cursing the cameras and the man in the water

Could have been a fisherman
Could have dived for pearls
Could have found the answer in the watery world
Could have been a builder
Could have found the key
Could have run with the river
And then in the sea

Did he run with the river?
Did he run with the river?
Did he run with the river?
Did he run with the river?

There is light at the window
A candle burning
A young girl turning in ...... from gold

Could have been a fisherman

Some dark Sunday
The women walking 
Down by the water
They speak of a diary
With missing pages and a map

Could have been a fisherman
Could have dived for pearls
Could have found the answer in the watery world
Could have been a builder
Could have found the key
And the way I feel tonight
I suppose it could have been me

Got to run with the river
Got to run with the river
Got to run with the river
Got to run with the river
Got to run with the river
Got to run with the river
