Lyrics The River - Stacey Q

The River

There’s a secret deep inside
And I can’t run and hide
From all the things I’ll miss because of you
In the dead of night we made love
It’s all that I can think of
And there’s no one in this world for me to turn to
Sometimes wish you’re not there
Dissolve you into air (ohh)
Take me to the river, out of the rain (ohh)
Take me to the river, wash away my pain (ohh)
Lead me to your shelter, out of the rain (ohh)
We were close to love, now, weren’t we?
I thought you’d never hurt me
And do the thing you promised not to do
I am going down completely
Can’t you lift me up, please, rescue me
And it’s just another lonely night without you
Cinnamon crush, far away eyes, North Carolina skies (ohh)
Take me to the river, out of the rain (ohh)
Take me to the river, wash away my pain (ohh)
Lead me to your shelter, out of the rain (ohh)
Sometimes wish you’re not there
Dissolve you into air (ohh)
Take me to the river, out of the rain (ohh)
Take me to the river, wash away my pain (ohh)
Lead me to your shelter, out of the rain (ohh)
And the fire burns so slowly
In the houses of the holy
Sometimes wish you’re not there
Dissolve you into air
Take me to the river, wash away my pain (ohh)
Lead me to your shelter, out of the rain (ohh)
Cinnamon crush, far away eyes, North Carolina skies (ohh)
Take me to the river, out of the rain (ohh)
Take me to the river, wash away my pain (ohh)
Lead me to your shelter, out of the rain (ohh)
