I spent my life twenty years in the basin My only friend was a man of much more He lied with power in his weary eyes 'till day came And all at once I knew his name [Chorus:] Giles of the river..comin' in to make my precious day Giles of the river.. comin' in to tell one tale and take my breath away...and he's on his way He took me down thru good times late departed And thru the world as it was and will be My bad self I watched you as you hung your head out my door But you won't grieve me no more [Chorus] My bad self I watched you as you hung your head out my door But you won't grieve me no more [Chorus]
