Black River (Elliot) by Jasper Erkens
Speaking words made of wisdom
flying high above the sky
He saw his face in the river
But that's been a while
Black river painted white
Talking loudly with no meaning
Asking people to believe
But all you get is some shocked faces
don't tell a lie
It's just me, myself and I
Only Elliot knows
he sings this song everywhere he goes
Maybe Elliot finds
And he knows, he knows where to hide
Sitting here on a stone made of glass
Falling towards the sun
but I've got the feeling
that the moment slips away
Don't tell a joke
For you I'm nothing more than smoke
Only Elliot knows
he sings this song everywhere he goes
Maybe Elliot finds
And he knows, he knows where to hide
Speaking words made of wisdom
flying high above the sky
He saw his face in the river
But that's been a while
Black river painted white
Talking loudly with no meaning
Asking people to believe
But all you get is some shocked faces
don't tell a lie
It's just me, myself and I
Only Elliot knows
he sings this song everywhere he goes
Maybe Elliot finds
And he knows, he knows where to hide
Sitting here on a stone made of glass
Falling towards the sun
but I've got the feeling
that the moment slips away
Don't tell a joke
For you I'm nothing more than smoke
Only Elliot knows
he sings this song everywhere he goes
Maybe Elliot finds
And he knows, he knows where to hide
