Here by the river side
I brought by soon-to-be bride
Through the fog and smoke
Watch the geese and the barges flow
She sang in the city dawn
Wrapped my limbs inside her clear song
Every car pa**ing by
Slowed to hear my beloved's sigh
And the dew in the gra** had an electric glow
Yeah, the dew in the gra** had an electric glow
And the light cut right through
Through our skin, through our bones
Yeah, the light cut right through
Where it glows
And it glows
Way up where the lighthouse runs
Heard the crack of the hunters' guns
She held onto my hand
Drew our names in the river's sand
And the dew in the gra** had an electric glow
Yeah, the dew in the gra** had an electric glow
And the light cut right through
Through our skin, through our bones
Yeah, the light cut right through
Where it glows
And it glows
And coming down in the cold, cold fluorescent
We watched the branches in the water drifting
I said I'd never let it happen to you
I said I'd never let it happen to you
And the hunters coming down won't bother us with their sounds
No, the hunters coming down won't bother us again with their sounds
And the dew in the gra** had an electric glow
Yeah, the dew in the gra** had an electric glow
And the light cut right through,
Through our skin, through our bones
And the light cut right through
Where it glows
And it glows
