Chris De Burgh - A Night On The River Lyrics

Naked and frozen at the side of a lake
I think I've gone and made my big mistake
I took her swimming, we had a fight
Now my clothes and the lady are well out of sight

And it looks like I'm heading for a night on the river
Under the moon and the stars
Looks like I'm heading for a night on the river
Me and my beating heart, singing in the dark

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Naked and frozen at the side of the lake
If she was here I wouldn't hesitate
To tell her how, the way things are
With a long conversation in the back of a car

Looks like I'm heading for a night on the river
Under the moon and the stars
Could be I'm heading for a night on the river
Just me and my beating heart, singing in the dark

Oh, oh, oh, oh

I think she owes me an explanation
She's got the whip hand in this situation
If I try to tell her just the way I feel
It could start the whole thing all over again, yeah

Ooh, I think I'm heading for a night on the river
Under the moon and the stars
Could be I'm heading for a night on the river
But I see the lights of a car, shining in the dark

Oh, could be we're heading for a mmm
Under the moon and the stars
Could be we're heading for a mmm
Just you and me and our beating hearts
We're singing in the dark

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
