Verse 1
Riverbank quiet, sun going red
Leave your shoes where the reeds are spread
Cool current moving around your heels
You do not have to say how it feels
Red clay softening under our weight
Low drum rolling inside the lake
Pre-Chorus
Let the heat drift down
Let the river run out
Take my hand right now
Pull me down, pull me down
Chorus
Into the water, into the ground
Nothing to say that we haven't found
Heavy and low where the river bends
This is the place where the daylight ends
Into the water, into the ground
Verse 2
Waterline rising over our knees
Warm wind shaking the willow trees
Drop of the bass vibrating the sand
Your shoulder leaning into my hand
Sky turning plum, shadows turning deep
Nothing to carry, nothing to keep
Pre-Chorus
Let the heat drift down
Let the river run out
Take my hand right now
Pull me down, pull me down
Chorus
Into the water, into the ground
Nothing to say that we haven't found
Heavy and low where the river bends
This is the place where the daylight ends
Into the water, into the ground
Bridge
No words in the dark, no rush to leave
Mud on the skin, breath on the sleeve
One pulse in the silt, one in the chest
Let the earth hold what is left
Chorus
Into the water, into the ground
Nothing to say that we haven't found
Heavy and low where the river bends
This is the place where the daylight ends
Into the water, into the ground
