River Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I see you in my dreams
Your face is haunting me
We are way after a map
But always find our way back

[Verse 2]
This freedom drives me wild
But I'm a prisoner of your smile
So far away but so close
I hold you tight and let go

[Pre-Chorus]
You're the one, the one for me
That I don't want but I need
And like the river meets the sea
When you run, run to me

[Chorus]
River, river, flow
River, river, run
River, river, go
River, river, come
River, river, flow
River, river, run
River, river, go
River, come
[Verse 3]
Wе're walking races edgе
In the daydreams and in my bed
Always swimming uptight
Such a heavenly high

[Pre-Chorus]
You're the one, the one for me
That I don't want but I need
And like the river meets the sea
When you run, run to me

[Chorus]
River, river, flow
River, river, run
River, river, go
River, river, come
River, river, flow
River, river, run
River, river, go
River, come

[Bridge]
It's heavy, it's heady
This is heavy, let go and come to me
This is heavy, it's heady
This is heavy, come to me
[Pre-Chorus]
You're the one, the one for me
That I don't want but I need
And like the river meets the sea
When you run, run to me

[Chorus]
River, river, flow
River, river, run
River, river, go
River, river, come
River, river, flow
River, river, run
River, river, go
River, come

[Pre-Chorus]
You're the one, the one for me
That I don't want but I need
And like the river meets the sea
When you run, run to me

[Outro]
River, river, flow
River, river, run
River, river, go
River, river, come (Come to me)
River, river, flow
River, river, run
River, river, go
River, come

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
