I jumped in the river, what did I see?
Black-eyed angels swam with me
A moon full of stars and astral cars
And all the figures I used to see
All my lovers were there with me
All my past and futures
And we all went to heaven in a little row boat
There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt
I jumped into the river
Black-eyed angels swam with me
A moon full of stars and astral cars
And all the figures I used to see
All my lovers were there with me
All my past and futures
And we all went to heaven in a little row boat
There was nothing to fear, nothing to doubt
There was nothing to fear, nothing to doubt
There was nothing to fear, nothing to doubt
Black-eyed angels swam with me
A moon full of stars and astral cars
And all the figures I used to see
All my lovers were there with me
All my past and futures
And we all went to heaven in a little row boat
There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt
I jumped into the river
Black-eyed angels swam with me
A moon full of stars and astral cars
And all the figures I used to see
All my lovers were there with me
All my past and futures
And we all went to heaven in a little row boat
There was nothing to fear, nothing to doubt
There was nothing to fear, nothing to doubt
There was nothing to fear, nothing to doubt

Thom Yorke is the most beautiful person in the world for writing this song. I dont care what its about. The fragility of his voice has encompassed so much more than the meaning of the words. Its a genuine example of the beautiful potential of humanity and the delicate nature of our existance. Everything about this song wrenches my heart strings. Including the video, which gives the song a more distinctive direction. I find it humbling that so many people have so many different interpretations of this song. If i could ever compose anything even half as emotionally strong as this, then i'll be a happy man. To me this is a song about life. The great flow of nature that we will all return to the earth from which we came once the waters of time have carried us as far as we need to go.I want this played at my funeral. It so full of hope, love, and beauty. With nothing to fear and nothing to doubt...peace x
Nicely said, I feel the same way, it's a lovely song that raises my sense of self beyond space and time.
