Lyrics
Downstream Blues Craig Sinclair (2004), released independently in 2005 I’m further down the river than some While others are far ahead I’m happy enough for now To simply let myself be led The riverbanks meander past But with each passing day The current gains a stronger pull I’m slipping slowly surely away I’ll be sure to share some time With folk who’ll make me smile I’ll no doubt set a few young castaways Free after a while And when there’s not much left to do And not much left to say I’ll keep on going laid back like Slipping slowly surely away My field of dreams was years ago They passed by on the left The only place worth looking’s further downstream ‘Til I run out of breath And when my day of judgement comes And I look over the brink There’s no holding back what’s up ahead My boat surely will sink Yeah when there’s not much left to do And not much left to say I’ll keep on going laid back like Slipping slowly surely away
