By This River

Bb
Here we are
Bb
Stuck by this river,
Gm
You and I
Gm
Underneath a sky that's ever falling 
Eb
down, down, down
Gm
Ever falling down.

Through the day
As if on an ocean
Waiting here,
Always failing to remember why we 
  came, came, came:
I wonder why we came. 

You talk to me
as if from a distance
And I reply
With impressions chosen from another 
  time, time, time,
From another time.
