You Are the River

I fall into you, get pulled along

Dragged out to sea before too long

Funny how it’s me who made you strong

You are the river and I’m the rain

You’ll flood your banks

You’ll take out towns

I dove in

Swearing I won’t drown

If only I could just slow you down

You are the river

And I’m the rain

We’re just too much now, too much now

I guess we’re both to blame

No I don’t know how

I don’t know how to stay away…

I never know just when to stop

You swell with pride till your levees drop

A hurricane, oh all was lost

You are the river and I’m the rain

We’ll never change

Try to wish us away, Love

Oh but I know better

We’re a perfect storm

It’s just how we’re made

I fall, you run…

We’re just too much now, too much now

It’ll always be that way

I don’t know how

I don’t know how we’ll ever change

You’re the river and I am the rain

You are the river and I am the rain

You are the river

You are the river

You are the river

I am the rain

You are the river

I am the rain

You are the river

I am the rain

You are the river

I am the rain

You are the river

I am the rain
