about

originally released September 21, 2011 on "The Sugar Nile" album

lyrics

baby I can’t see you anymore
‘til it’s been a hundred years or maybe more
but I can still think of the good times
the longer it’s been, the more they’re on my mind

let’s go down the sugar nile, sail it for a little while
close our eyes and travel a whole mind
forget about worries and cares, where they’re not we will be there
we’ll go ridin’ down the sugar nile

you gave me the blanket you had as a child
with rainbow stripes, pink lines and yellow tiles
I took it as promise you’d be faithful
but you weren’t and I have that blanket still

let’s go down the sugar nile, sail it for a little while
close our eyes and travel a whole mind
forget about worries and cares, where they’re not we will be there
we’ll go ridin’ down the sugar nile

one more time before it fades away
memories from the magic days
you’d be sick and by the locks we’d lay
and I’d put my lips to your ear and say

let’s go down the sugar nile, sail it for a little while
close our eyes and travel a whole mind
forget about worries and cares, where they’re not we will be there
we’ll go ridin’ down the sugar nile
