Meet Me By the River's Edge Lyrics

See I've been here for 28 years
Pounding sweat beneath these wheels
We tattooed lines beneath our skin
No surrender, my Bobby Jean
[2x]

We've been burned by all our fears
Just from growing up around here
Our father's factories marked our cars
While Eden burned against the stars

And Sally said, Sally said
I can't take no more regret
It cut us deep, into our souls
Came and climbed into our bed
And Sally said, Sally said
Meet me by the river's edge
We're going to wash these sins away
Or else we won't come back again

You know I had these ballroom dreams
That, as a child, came to me
I was a boy in grandma's arms
A mother's pride and a wounded heart
And I was full with fiery wonder

And Sally said, Sally said
I can't take no more regret
It cut us deep, into our souls
Came and climbed into our bed
And Sally said, Sally said
Meet me by the river's edge
We're going to wash these sins away
Or else we won't come back again

And now I drive the 101 on the California night
And I'm amazed at all the stars beneath that old Hollywood sign
As the waltz the ballet on the boulevard to a place we never kept
And I'm not sure if we belong here,
if I ever really left, or If I can go home

And Sally said, Sally said
I can't take no more regret
It cut us deep, into our souls
Came and climbed into our bed
And Sally said, Sally said
Meet me by the river's edge
We're going to wash these sins away
Or else we won't come back again

No retreat, no regrets
Meet me by the river's edge
