Collective Soul
Tradition
[Verse 1]
It's those subtle innuendos
That always come back in time
That's when tradition starts
With a gleam in our eye
So from where we are now
To where we once began
Let's gather up that innocence
And start it again

[Chorus]
Let's go down to the river
Let's go back to the sea
Let's go swim in the ocean
Just you and me

[Verse 2]
All these causes we possess
And emotions we owe
And just a, and just a constant reminder
Of each other we chose
So when we fall in and out
And there's subject to learn
That's when tradition starts
And love returns
[Chorus]
Let's go down to the river
Let's go back to the sea
Let's go swim in the ocean
Just you and me

[Bridge]
When conversation fails
And we're left here all alone
Let's refer back to basics
That were there all along
Whether Sunday morning drive
Or a late night hang
It's always always always you and me babe

[Chorus]
Let's go down to the river
Let's go back to the sea
Let's go swim in the ocean
Just you and me

Let's go down to the river
Let's go back to the sea
Let's go swim in the ocean
Just you and me
[Outro]
Let's go back
Let's go back
Let's go back
Just you and me
Let's go back
Let's go back
Just you and me
