Fall in a River
Badly Drawn Boy Lyrics

The lyrics of Badly Drawn Boy's song Fall in a River speak about someone being lost, possibly metaphorically, and the singer not knowing how to help them find their way. The line "Don't ask me where to fall in a river" suggests that the singer is at a loss for how to offer direction or guidance. The line "I might deliver you all the way home" implies that the singer wishes they could help the lost person find their way back to where they belong, but they are unsure how to do so.

The next few lines seem to address the lost person directly, with the singer suggesting that the lost person may think they (the singer) are foolish for not having any answers. However, the singer seems to suggest that being naive or foolish can actually be a good thing, perhaps implying that a fresh perspective or lack of preconceived notions can be helpful in finding one's way.

Overall, the lyrics to Fall in a River convey a feeling of uncertainty and confusion, but also a desire to help and a recognition that sometimes not having all the answers can be an asset.
