[Verse 1]
She is waiting for you in the river
Waiting for you
[Chorus]
Take some rest, take some respite
Won't you
Take some rest, you only get by
[Verse 2]
Prise those fingers wide
And watch as your shadows rise
[Chorus]
Take some rest, take some respite
Won't you
Take some rest, take some respite
As your baby stirs
As your baby stirs
As your baby stirs and it only gets worse
[Verse 3]
You have been so accommodating
Weighed down with the body
Waiting
[Chorus]
Take some rest, take some respite
Won't you
Take some rest, you only get by
Take some rest, take some respite
Won't you
Take some rest, you only get by
