Concrete River (versie 2)

Intro

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Verse 1

Six-fifteen and the stairs are full

Coats on coats in a steady pull

Paper cup and your headphones in

You read the board with a crooked grin

Pre-Chorus

The whole town's rushing past your shoulder

Like water round a stone

Everybody's going somewhere

And I don't wanna go home

Chorus

We're standing in a concrete river

Everybody's flowing by

I don't care where the current's going

I'm staying here with you tonight

(Oh, concrete river!)

Verse 2

The train pulls in and sighs its doors

A thousand shoes on tiled floors

You let it go, you let one more

And I keep counting what I'm staying for

Pre-Chorus

The whole town's rushing past your shoulder

Like water round a stone

Everybody's going somewhere

And I don't wanna go home

Chorus

We're standing in a concrete river

Everybody's flowing by

I don't care where the current's going

I'm staying here with you tonight

(Oh, concrete river!)

Bridge

Let it pull, let it shove

Let the evening drag the crowd along

I've got the cold rail in my hand

And you're humming half my song

Final Chorus

We're standing in a concrete river

Everybody's flowing by

I don't care where the current's going

I'm staying here with you tonight

(Oh, concrete river!)

Outro

Oh, concrete river

Let it all go by

Oh-oh, oh-oh
