Alas I cannot swim লিরিক্স

There's a house across the river, but alas. I cannot swim And a garden of such beauty that the flowers seem to grin There's a house across the river, but alas, I cannot swim I'll live my life regretting that I never jumped in There's a boy across the river with short black curly hair He wants to be my lover and I want to be his peer There's a boy across the river but alas, I cannot swim And I never will get to put my arms around him There's a life across the river that was meant for me Instead I live my life in constant misery There's a life across the river but I do not see Why I should please those that will never be pleased There is gold across the river but I don't want none Gold is fleeting, gold is fickle, gold is fun There is gold across the river but I don't want none I would rather be dry than held up by a golden gun Saying work more, earn more, live more, have more fun
