Steady is the riverbed Staying like this song inside my head Taking on a different name Never for a moment off its game Steady is the riverbed Reliable as Erik's known as red Pistons on an iron beam Running through on steam Steady is the riverbed Steady is the riverbed Steady is the timber too Steady are my hands, though I am few I'll build a steady bridge from me to you Steady is the ocean blue Sticking like this stone inside my shoe Chequered squares and empty boats Keeping all our loyalties afloat Steady is the riverbed Plenty as the books I've never read Blotted ink on parchment page Never seems to age Steady is the riverbed Steady is the riverbed Steady is the timber too Steady are my hands though they are few I'll build a steady bridge from me to you Steady is the ocean blue Steadily it pulls me back to you
