River Lyrics

Seattle moonlight motel, a rattlesnake the evening
I smelled it in the wind, I can taste it in a cocktail
She'll call me, I know she will look for me
All the air that drowned me, it said a little secret
A sunken giant sleeps off the coast of California
She'll call me, I know she will look for me
And they say that it doesn't look good
They say that it doesn't look good for me
Like if I were a knight I'd hallucinate a movie
My CineColor baby, the lace sticks to your body
Battlefields of death fought for palaces of money
The song had my heart racing, the wine got my head heavy
My sword became so bloody, I don't know what I've done
Would you see me my love, would you wait for me?
Would you stand by the high prison gate for me?
Well they tell me it doesn't look great
And they say that it doesn't look great for me
Like a breath of fall on your weekend, I'm high
I said "you know it's great to be worth it or to fall behind
Washed away
Washed away
Washed away"
Oh, the breath escapes me, I'm shaking like a lost thing
Invaded by your face, overtaken by a feeling
I saw the sky, it's spinning, I heard the branches snapping
She'll call me, I know she would look for me
And they say that it doesn't look good
Well they say that it doesn't look good for me
River's song "For Me" is a melancholic meditation on longing and an unrequited love. In the lyrics, the singer recalls a time when he was told the object of his affection (referred to as "she") would be present at a motel in Seattle. The imagery of a rattlesnake, which he can smell and taste in his cocktail, adds to the ominous, foreboding tone of the song. Despite the impending danger, the singer is determined to meet his love and hopes she will look for him.
The lyrics then shift to a surreal, dreamlike quality as the singer conjures up images of a sunken giant off the coast of California and a blue ravine with a steep, broken path. The singer's mind turns to thoughts of battlefields fought for palaces of money, perhaps implying the sacrifices one makes in pursuit of love. As the song progresses, the singer's desperation becomes more apparent, as he hallucinates a movie and becomes dizzy with emotion. He pleads with his love to wait for him, even if it means standing by a high prison gate.

All the girls around me said you were gonna be there
I heard from other girls that you were going to be at the Seattle moonlight motel
Seattle moonlight motel, a rattlesnake the evening
The Seattle moonlight motel was dangerous and unsettling, like a rattlesnake in the evening
I smelled it in the wind, I can taste it in a cocktail
I sensed the danger in the air and it was so strong it even tasted like a cocktail
She'll call me, I know she will look for me
I believe that she will call me and try to find me
All the air that drowned me, it said a little secret
Something in the air was suffocating me and it seemed to be hiding a secret
A sunken giant sleeps off the coast of California
There is a large sunken object off the California coast
Go down the blue ravine where the way is steep and broken
Go down the steep and difficult path of the blue ravine
Like if I were a knight I'd hallucinate a movie
I feel like a knight experiencing a surreal movie
My CineColor baby, the lace sticks to your body
My lover's clothes are clinging to her body like a movie scene in full color
Battlefields of death fought for palaces of money
People have died fighting for wealth and power
The song had my heart racing, the wine got my head heavy
The music made my heart pump and the alcohol made me dizzy
My sword became so bloody, I don't know what I've done
I am not sure what I have done, but my sword is covered in blood
Would you see me my love, would you wait for me?
Would you still love me and wait for me even if I am in trouble?
Would you stand by the high prison gate for me?
Would you be loyal to me even if I am in prison?
Well they tell me it doesn't look great
People are telling me that the situation is not looking good for me
And they say that it doesn't look great for me
People are telling me that the situation is not looking good for me
Like a breath of fall on your weekend, I'm high
I am feeling high like the refreshing breath of fall on a weekend
I said "you know it's great to be worth it or to fall behind
I believe that it is better to take risks and have a chance of greatness than to play it safe and miss out
Washed away
The negative feelings and experiences are being washed away
Washed away
The negative feelings and experiences are being washed away
Washed away
The negative feelings and experiences are being washed away
Oh, the breath escapes me, I'm shaking like a lost thing
I am overwhelmed and trembling, feeling like a lost thing
Invaded by your face, overtaken by a feeling
I am consumed by my lover's face and overwhelmed with emotion
I saw the sky, it's spinning, I heard the branches snapping
I am seeing the world around me in an altered state, with the sky spinning and the sound of snapping branches
She'll call me, I know she would look for me
I believe that she will call me and try to find me
And they say that it doesn't look good
People are telling me that the situation is not looking good for me
Well they say that it doesn't look good for me
People are telling me that the situation is not looking good for me
