Morrissey - Drag The River (Album Version) World Peace Is None Of Your Business

Deluxe edition of the "World Peace Is None Of Your Business" album.
LYRICS
Drag the river and within her
you may find a sliver
of the one of whom you speak
and who they seek
she would gaze into the river
as we'd look into a mirror
and her reflection would beckon her to
"join me join me join me join me
happy we will be"
On the coastal shore I'm sure
you'd break down if you saw
an abhorrent torrent crashing
as it pours
the countercurrent holds a secret
at the rise of tide
and it swells all alone for this heart born too high so
"join me join me join me join me"
I'm certain I heard her cry
By the river the soul
of submersible stone
every second of my life
prepares to go
she would call into the river
as she'd cry out for her mother
so stark, so haunt, deep enough for all I want
"join us join us join us join us
and happy we will be"

We can dance to any Morrissey/ The Smiths song in our own strange ways.

A woman contemplating suicide and falling in love with her own death. 'Drag the River' is a term used by the police to drag a net into a lake or river to find a body. British author Virginia Woolf (One of Morrissey's favorites) took her own life by putting stones in her coat pocket and drowned herself in a river. Pretty grim and morbid Moz.

This song makes me cry. I haven’t heard it in such a very long time. I relate to most all of Moz’s lyrics but the lyrics to this song...well the lyrics, the music, the song as a whole...it just sort of tears my heart out and makes me feel some kind of hauntingly familiar peacefully maudlin sorta way. Thank you for uploading. 🥰 #VivaMoz!

[@mini_mozzer]
