Lyrics and Chords

Down here by the river
In the shadow of the city
On a hot summer night
The men are handsome
The women look so pretty

I've seen Charlie Chaplin's son in disguise
Seen angels on the rise
Heard the bells of freedom in a song
Down here you just can't go wrong

Anything can occur, anything can occur
Down here by the river

Kiss me once and I'll kiss you twice
Even that won't suffice
To tame my hunger, my lonely nights
I'm still caught between the wrong and right

So if you see me taking a stroll
On Broadway and Main
Don't be surprised if I look at you
And call you by your Christian name

There are black swans down by the water
The ones you said "could never exist"
The evening air is growing cool
As the fog mixes in with the mist

Kiss me once and I'll kiss you twice
Even that won't suffice
To tame my hunger, my lonely nights
I'm still caught between the wrong and right

Anything can occur, anything can occur
Down here by the river
