Down by the water you will find your happys days
I burn today I burn today

I ran so fast in to the North
No snow on me then so he said thence forth
I let snow fall on a frozen yesterday
I burn today I burn today
Verse 6:
If my head is hanging down
I feel her arms and her legs are all around
And we make love beside the waterway
I burn today I burn today
