Back to the River |
If only my feet could fall as fast as a heart does |
I would be so long gone |
But I’m stuck, stuck under your thumb |
I can’t get up |
I can’t get up, up, I can’t get up |
If only my eyes could see as high as a mountain |
Or wherever your heart’s gone |
But I have fallen on the bank of this river |
I can’t get up |
I can’t get up, up, I can’t get up |
If only my heart could speak into this river |
And you’d drink me up |
I could be free of all these lonesome shivers |
I could give myself up |
(Give myself up, up, I’ll give myself up) |
We all go back to the river |
We will all come undone |
(Give myself up, up, I’ll give myself up) |
And there you will be, my love, with the faintest touch |
And I’ll give myself up |
Give myself up, up, I’ll give myself up |
Give myself up, up, I’ll give myself up |
