…don't take nobody holy to tell you
That everything's going to hell
And it's already obvious to sages and fools
The many outnumber us all
Ah but, oh how the lights
On the river tonight
Make me feel like a dreamer again
As the hour draws near
Will you stay with me here
And we'll Wait For The World to end

And we'll dream

If today is the future we've come to
And tomorrow 'd not broken its wing
If the past hadn't been so nearsighted
This might not be the song that I sing
If the current weren't flowing
So quickly we might
Have the faith to believe and begin
Stay with me here
By the river tonight
And we'll Wait For The World to end
