The River

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Sam Claflin & Riley Keough] I could've sworn this was the way Tell me again, why do we stay On such a lonely, lonely, lonely road? You'd never guess, I'll never know But we're on the same side and it's gonna Be a lonely, lonely, lonely road [Chorus: Sam Claflin & Riley Keough] If I follow you to the river Send my blues out to the sea Will you stay with me forever? Will you chase me in my dreams? If I throw it all in the river And let the rhythm take the lead Will it stay with you and never Let you leave on me? [Post-Chorus: Sam Claflin & Riley Keough] Ooh, I know, I know Ooh, I know [Verse 2: Sam Claflin & Riley Keough, Sam Claflin] You had a choice I couldn't make And this is the last turn that you take On a lonely, lonely, lonely road Give me your hand, here is my heart Where does it end? When do we start? On a lonely, lonely, lonely road [Chorus: Sam Claflin & Riley Keough] If I follow you to the river Send my blues out to the sea Will you stay with me forever? Will you chase me in my dreams? If I throw it all in the river And let the rhythm take the lead Will it stay with you and never Let you leave on me? [Post-Chorus: Sam Claflin & Riley Keough] Ooh, I know, I know Ooh, I know [Bridge: Riley Keough] I'm an echo in your shadow In your shadow, I'm in too deep In the river, your reflection Is a promise you couldn't keep I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I lost you here I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I took you here I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I lost you here I know, I know, I know, I know, I know This isn't fair [Break: Sam Claflin & Riley Keough] Ooh Ooh-ah Ooh-ah-ah-ah-ah Ooh-ah [Outro: Sam Claflin, Riley Keough] If I follow you to the river And if I follow you to the river (If I follow you to the river) Oh, the shadows go down so deep If I follow you to the river (I took you there) And your shadow In the river, your reflection Is a promise you couldn't keep I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I lost you here If I follow you to the river (Oh) If I follow you to the river (Oh, if I follow you to the river) In the river, your reflection Is a promise you couldn't keep I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I lost you here (Oh, if I follow you to the river) And your shadow I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I lost you here I know, I know, I know I love you now
