The River End
You seem like a nice girl
And I think you’ve got a chance with me
From anyone in the wide world
You might find romance with me
But I’m not like other guys
You can see it in my eyes
I burn with a flame that never dies
So if you’re gonna give it a go
There’s something you ought to know
Try not to act surprised
When you meet the guys
I’ll see you in the river end
Right beside the river bend
With eleven of my dearest friends:
The Union
I’ll see you in the river end
Right beside the river bend
With a thousand of my loudest friends:
The Sons of Ben
I tried to watch football
I saw a cricket match or two
I gave up on the drama
And I turned my back on cable news
But my real breakthrough it seems
Was turning off the screens
Standing in the terraces
If you know what that means
Where the only fiction you see
Is in the mind of the referee
Or an exaggerated injury
That’s where I’ll be
I’ll see you in the river end
Right beside the river bend
With eleven of my finest friends:
The Union
I’ll see you in the river end
Right beside the river bend
With hundreds of my finest friends:
The Sons of Ben
So now I’m in the Sons of Ben
I know the words of every hymn
I dance to the beat of our drums
And if you think you might be the one
You better get to know them
You gotta get with my friends
I’ll see you in the river end
Right beside the river bend
With eleven of my finest friends:
The Union
I’ll see you in the river end
Right beside the river bend
With hundreds of my finest friends:
The Sons of Ben
You remember our first kiss
I remember we won 5 to 2
And when I popped the question
An unlikely hattrick for Letoux
If you can live that way
At least you couldn’t say
I lied about my illness
To make you stay
You take me as I am
With no corrections planned
I couldn’t ask for more
Saturdays I at four

Like the piano so much. The pause in the middle... Almost killing! Like it, the melody is wow.
