"A House And A River" lyrics

"A House And A River"

I can't seem to let you know
Just what it takes
How I'm always keeping score, score
Of my mistakes
Sharp enough to get to the line
Dumb enough to fade every time
I can't seem to let you know, know
Just what it takes

I'm distracted by everything, you bring me close to before
I see a house and a river, you and me stretched by the shore

I wish I could explain what it is
The way I feel about you
Nothing here before could exist
The way I feel about you
In the light I can't escape it
Why would anybody want to?
Wish I could explain what it is
The way I feel about you
Feel about, feel about
The way I feel about you
Feel about, feel about
The way I feel about you
Feel about, feel about
The way I feel about you
Feel about, feel about

I swore I'd never make you wait
Oh, what a man
Always hit the wall too late, late
But you never tell
No one gets it wrong like I do
No one here was ever so good
Swore I'd never make you wait, wait
Oh, what a man

I'm distracted by everything, you bring me close to before, love
I see a house and a river, you and me stretched by the shore, love

I wish I could explain what it is
The way I feel about you
Nothing here before could exist
The way I feel about you
In a light I can't escape it
Why would anybody want to?
Wish I could explain what it is
The way I feel about you
Feel about, feel about
The way I feel about you
Feel about, feel about
The way I feel about you
Feel about, feel about
The way I feel about you
Feel about, feel about

And when we finish the circle, would you bring me back to before?
I see that house and that river, you and me just like we were

I wish I could explain what it is
The way I feel about you
Nothing here before could exist
The way I feel about you
In a light I can't escape it
Why would anybody want to?
Wish I could explain what it is
The way I feel about you
Feel about, feel about
The way I feel about you
Feel about, feel about
The way I feel about you
Feel about, feel about
The way I feel about you
Feel about, feel about
Feel about, feel about
