PJ Harvey: Down by the Water Meaning

Song Released: 1995



Down by the Water Lyrics

I lost my heart
Under the bridge
To that little girl
So much to me
And now I'm old
And now I holler
She'll never know
Just what I found

That blue eyed girl
(that blue eyed girl)
She said "no more"
(she said "no more")
That blue eyed...

    I read somewhere that P.J. Harvey read a story in the newspaper about a mother who found out her 14 year old daughter wasn't a virgin anymore so she drowned her own daughter then P.J. Harvey wrote the song about that story.
