In my dreams, I see fire - exploding in the sky
So I spin around to pour a glass of water
but the tap won't turn

Take me down to the river while I'm counting sheep

Dip my glass in a pool and raise it to my lips -
now I'm running and spilling and running and spilling
Turn my eyes up to the sky and throw the glass,
and it rains! And it rains!

Take me down to the river while I'm counting sheep
Take me down to the river - I pray my soul to keep
Take me down to the river while I'm counting sheep
Take me down to the river while I'm counting...

        If I take what's coming to me (a voice said)
        we'll be along to carry you home

Take me down to the river while I'm counting sheep
Take me down to the river - I pray my soul to keep
Take me down to the river while I'm counting sheep
Take me down to the river - down to the river...
Let it rain!
