About the song
A hot and humid sunny day in New Orleans, LA. Taking the road to the river and discovering the lies that tear apart all we had treasured and loved. Tears in my eyes, washed by the tides of your lies – as the tugboats go by…….
Über das Lied
An einem heissen, feuchten Sonnentag in New Orleans, LA. Auf der Weg zum Fluss die Enthüllung der Lügen, die alles zerstören was so sorgfältig gehütet und geliebt wurde. Tränen in den Augen, ausgewaschen von den Gezeiten der Lügen – wärend die Schleppboote vorbeiziehen ….
Lyrics
I take the road down to the river
Watch the tug boats go by
To get to our place on the levy
Where my heart was hit by your eyes
Tears in my eyes
Washed by the tide of your lies
Tears in my eyes
While tugs boats go by
I take the road down to the river
Hiding from you – in the shade
Strong arms embrace your body
For mine it’s now too late
Tears in my eyes
Washed by the tide of your lies
Tears in my eyes
While tugs boats go by
My telephone is ringing
It’s your voice on the phone
Pretending long distant calling
But I know you are next door
I take the Road down to the river
To say farewell to our love
To bury our hopes on the levy
Where the tug boats go by
Tears in my eyes
Washed by the tide of your lies
Tears in my eyes
While tugs boats go by
