Cottars Send Me A River Lyrics

We're doubtful of much hope today
I am so sad to see you sad
Goldness of feeling, think of a Roman
Go in to the western wind

Send me a river
See the ship on the sea
Send me a river
'Cause I am not where I want to be

Designing for the kingdom
And shaping to the crowd
The scene was so revolting
That the queen in shame she bowed

She bowed to the families of misfortune
Who had lost a lonely life to her
She did not know that she could cause sorrow within

Send her a river
See the ship on the sea
Send her a river 'Cause she is not where she wants to be

And when your evening gown
Trails into the mud
Remember what they're seeing
Is not what it's all about

And you've got to walk on through
With millions on either side
Watching you with their eyes
You did not know that you could cause sorrow within

Send you a river
See the ship on the sea
Send you a river
'Cause you are not where you want to be

We're doubtful of much hope today
I am so sad to see you sad
Goldness of feeling, think of a Roman
