River Red, Sky Blue

Says this life is so complicated,
It twists and turns, it's bright and it's faded.
She says, I could never be who I was back then,
Too much shit thrown out the window, you could never mend.
And you are so much of me, but you come and you go,
And you do as you please. And I know I could have a child with you,
Though our river runs red, the sky is blue.

And I say give it one more chance,
Getting older each day, I still believe in romance,
And I've still never met anyone quiet like you,
And although our river runs red, our sky is blue,
yeah I won't hesitate, can fly in from where I ever am.
Babe I won't wait.
Put you in my arms, make you understand,
how much one women can be loved by one man.
Put you in my arms, make you understand,
how much one women can be loved by one man.

Say the word babe and I'll be there,
Say the word babe, and I'll be there.

Talking to my friends wife backstage the other day
She was telling me the same story, she was holding their baby.
She says eventually you grow up and realise you've never met somebody so cool,
And although your river runs as red, your sky is blue,
yeah I won't hesitate, can fly in from where I ever am.
Babe I won't wait.
Put you in my arms, make you understand,
how much one women can be loved by one man.
