Powys Sky, you've seen me panic, one too many times
I always say I'm gonna go, oh oh
I always say I'm gonna go and then I never go, I never go
I know, the Dyfi doesn't need me when she's holding me
But I, I'm riverfed, none the less
When I get to him I am so tired I ignore every sign
There were safer places to lie down, but that's the one TV tells me to find, every time
Powys Sky, you've seen me losing it at least a thousand times
You're always threatening to fall, oh oh I always think you're gonna fall but then you never fall, you never fall
I know, the Dyfi doesn't notice when I'm not there
But when I'm not riverfed, I am less
When I get to him I am so tired I ignore every sign
There is never space for me to stand, but maybe that part of the plan is mine, every time
Powys Sky, you won't believe me but that one, was the last time
