A night on the river

A night on the river
Naked and frozen at the side of a lake,
i think i've gone and made my big mistake,
i took her swimming, we had a fight,
now my clothes and the lady are well out of sight;
And it looks like i'm heading for a night on the river,
under the moon and the stars,
looks like i'm heading for a night on the river,
me and my beating heart, singing in the dark;
Naked and frozen at the side of a lake,
if she was here i wouldn't hesitate,
to tell her how, the way things are,
with a long conversation in the back of a car;
And it looks like i'm heading for a night on the river,
under the moon and the stars,
could be i'm heading for a night on the river,
just me and my beating heart, singing in the dark;
I think she owes me an explanation,
she's got the whip hand in this situation,
if i try to tell her just the way i feel,
it could start the whole thing all over again;
Ooh, i think i'm heading for a night on the river,
under the moon and the stars,
could be i'm heading for a night on the river,
but i see the lights of a car, shining in the dark,
Ooh, could be we're heading for a mm-mm,
under the moon and the stars,
could be we're heading for a mm-mm,
just you and me and our beating hearts,
we're singing in the dark...
