Love me like a river does Baby don't rush you're no waterfall Love me that is all Love me like a roaring sea Love me like the earth itself Cross the sea Swirls about Wash me out

I take my leave of you Shall we meet in the sunrise Stand one last time as two I'll look deep into your eyes Can I take my leave of you? Walk down to the water Stare out across the blue Look to where our love was stolen What I'd give to be unbroken

Is a waterfall Every teardrop is a waterfall I turn the music up, I got my records on I shut the world outside until the lights come on Maybe the streets alight, maybe the trees are gone I feel my heart start beating to my favourite song

We stayed up all night long Made our drinks too strong Feeling ten feet tall Ropes swinging into the water In the middle of the night Like oh oh oh oh oh Breaking our boots in Stomping on the ground we grew up on Yeah, we were raised on it

You're gonna get through this It's never been harder Head above water Gotta fight from going under Even when it feels useless to wish You pray to God, don't know when But you feel the current pull you in You try to keep your head above water Even when it
