Mersey Paradise (Remastered)

River splashes against the rocks

And I scale a slope I hope the tracks won't

Lead me down to dark black pits

Or places where we fall to bits

If she were there, I'd hold her down

I'll push her under while she drowns

And couldn't breathe and call for air

She doesn't care for my despair

Or is it me?

Or the one that's wrong? (One that's wrong)

You see it in the sea

River cool's where I belong

In my Mersey Paradise

As I stare, an oil wheel comes

Sailing by and I feel like

Growing fins and falling in

With the bricks, the bikes, the rusty tin

I'll swim along without a care

I'm eating sand when I need air

You can bet your life, I'll meet a pike

Who'll wolf me down for tea tonight

I want to be (I want to be)

Where the drownings are (the drownings are)

You see it in the sea

River cool's where I belong

In my Mersey Paradise

I want to be (I want to be)

Where the drownings are (the drownings are)

You see it in the sea

River cool's where I belong

Oh yeah

I want to be (I want to be)

Where the drownings are (the drownings are)

You see it in the sea

River cool's where I belong

In my Mersey Paradise
