Well, there's a river that runs through Glasgow
It makes her, but it breaks her and takes her in two parts
And her current, just like my blood, flows
Down from the hills that stand alone, like my restless heart
Well, I would swim, but the river is so wide
I'm scared I won't make it to the other side
Well, God knows I've failed, but He knows that I've tried
I long for something that's safe and warm
But all I have is all that is gone
I'm as helpless and as hopeless as a feather on the Clyde
ย
Well, on one side, all the lights glow
And the folks know, and the kids go where the music and the drinkin' starts
On the other side, where no cars go
Up to the hills that stand alone like my restless heart
Well, I would swim, but the river is so wide
And I'm scared I won't make it to the other side
Well, God knows I've failed, but He knows that I've tried
I long for somethin' that's safe and warm
But all I have is all that is gone
I'm as helpless and as hopeless as a feather on the Clyde
ย
Where the sun sets late, in Glasgow
And the daylight and the city part
And I think of you in Glasgow
'Cause you're all that's safe, you're all that's warm
In my restless heart
