Lyrics When the River - Sondre Lerche

When the River

Take my hands, they’re all I’ve got
I ain’t got no nothing to prove but I forgot
Take my heart, I’ll wear it out
The friends I make here all come at extra cost
What say we just get lost?
Just around the bend and back again
Just another place to leave without a trace
Just another mile down a dead end drain
When the rive turns I’ll come down with the rain
Take my hand and twist my arms
I ain’t got it in me to set off bells and alarms
Tell my mother I’m not coming home
Been all for nothing, baby, for all too long
What say we right this wrong?
Just around the bend and back again
Just another place to leave without a trace
Just another mile down a dead end drain
When the river turns I’ll come down with the rain
