Wherever It Goes (v2)

[Verse 1]

Blue paint peeling from the old bike frame

Bread in a paper bag, no need to explain

River on my left, morning on the right

You ring the little bell and everything feels light

[Pre-Chorus]

Past the willow branches, past the sleeping boats

Your jacket catches gold where the first warm breeze blows

[Chorus]

Ride with me where the water bends

Down the towpath, past the fishermen

Every wheel turn writes a brand-new line

You and I arrive with the rising sun in our eyes

Ride with me, let the whole day start

Two loose hands and an open heart

No map needed, we already know

Follow the river wherever it goes

[Verse 2]

Coffee from the corner in a paper cup

A dog runs beside us, then it gives up

Morning joggers wave from the wooden bridge

We coast downhill laughing at the edge

[Pre-Chorus]

The town is waking slowly, shutters opening wide

But we keep our quiet mile with the current by our side

[Chorus]

Ride with me where the water bends

Down the towpath, past the fishermen

Every wheel turn writes a brand-new line

You and I arrive with the rising sun in our eyes

Ride with me, let the whole day start

Two loose hands and an open heart

No map needed, we already know

Follow the river wherever it goes

[Bridge]

If the clouds roll in, we’ll take the long way home

If the chain comes loose, we’ll fix it by the stones

There’s a whole wide morning waiting past the bend

And I want to see it with you again

[Final Chorus]

Ride with me where the water bends

Down the towpath, past the fishermen

Every wheel turn writes a brand-new line

You and I arrive with the rising sun in our eyes

Ride with me, let the whole day start

Two loose hands and an open heart

No map needed, we already know

Follow the river wherever it goes

[Outro]

Wherever it goes

Wherever it goes

[Outro]

Wherever it goes

Wherever it goes
