Because Of You Lyrics - Jump Little Children

Goodnight to the river 

Goodnight to the harbor lights 

Goodnight to the city 

Goodnight will never be the same 

Because of you 

I can sit here drinking Licorice tea 

And stare at the golden moon 

Just picturing the way things used to be 

The hot summer in the middle of June 

You were there in your peach silk dress 

Laughing at me, 'cause I was a mess 

A tall glass of lemonade 

Come on, let's go lay down in the shade 

It really wasn't that long ago 

It really wasn't that long ago

And I can sit here in my rocking chair 

Down by the riverside 

And I can think about your golden hair 

But I'll think about my foolish pride 

You were there beside me 

Lay down your head, sweet Rosa Marie 

Just you and me and the distant hound 

Just one kiss and the sun went down 

It really wasn't that long ago 

It really wasn't that long ago 

Let the river pull me under 

Down to the cold, cold blue 

Let the lightning and the thunder 

Have just one crack and I''m through 

Let the stars choose my number 

But I ain't going down not because of you

I can sit here all alone 

And howl as the moon goes down 

A burning fever down in my bones 

I'm almost certain that I'll come around 

The roller coaster and the ferris wheel 

Cotton candy, yeah, whatever you feel 

Just hold my hand and hold it tight 

A candy apple in the middle of the night 

It really wasn't that long ago 

It really wasn't that long ago 

Let the city drag me down 

Like she just might do 

'Til I'm scraping the ground 

With holes in my shoes 

With my head spinning round 

But I ain't going down, not because of you 

Yeah, because of you 

Yeah, because of you 

Yeah, because of you
