Fountains of Wayne
Raise The River
One more kiss, baby who needs this
We're all shiftless and forgiving
I saw a movie, I took you with me
The big screen was deep enough to swim in

You adored them, baby I'm one of them
I'll shower down on you like the blues
It's a hard and heavy stone deep within me
So give me something I can use

Oh why do you wonder?
You should take me to the water

'Cause we'll raise the river
Sink under the water
Gonna find true [?]
I will never let you down

And his passion took him
To New York
Left his day job - you too
And you should hear the kind of shit they say about you
Foolish things that are only half true

Oh why do you wonder?
You should take me to the water
'Cause we'll raise the river
Sink under the water
Gonna find true [?]
I will never let you down

Soon the Earth will overcome you
You'll be gone, gone gone
And if a change does not become you
Who are you gonna fall back on?

'Cause we'll raise the river
Sink under the water
Gonna find true [?]
I will never let you down

'Cause we'll raise the river
Sink under the water
Gonna find true [?]
I will never let you down

I will never let you down...
I will never let you down...
I will never let you down...
