lyrics

There's a goddess by the river
They called her by name
They called her upon the fairy plane
When she sings in his ear, it lulls him to sleep
And I am hypnotized kissing her feet

The tide and the turn, the way that she moved
The bridge that I could have crossed over to you
Why did I burn it? Why did you sink?
There I was hypnotized over the brink
There I was hypnotized over the brink

There's a goddess by the river
They love how she moves
Tip-toeing over the tightrope for you
She glances, dances, gathers her flowers
Presses them into a pagan bible

Handing the boys copies of Mozart
Spreading herself like a canvas of art
For them to all paint on while I hold back
All of my brushes colors they lack
All of my brushes colors they lack

Hey come on over and play girl
Come and enter my world
See my magic unfurl
Hey come on over and see
I have so many candies
From my main man Charlie

There's a goddess by the river
They called her by name
But the minute I reached her
It was too late
For she had gone fishing
She'd taken the bait
I'm still in her net and I cannot escape
I'm still in her net and I cannot escape
