"River" lyrics

"River"
(originally by Bishop Briggs)

Like a river, like a river, shit
Like a river, like a river, shit
Like a river, like a river
Shut your mouth and run me like a river

How do you fall in love?
Harder than a bullet could hit you
How do we fall apart?
Faster than a hairpin trigger

Don't you say, don't you say it
Don't say, don't you say it
One breath, it'll just break it
So shut your mouth and run me like a river

Shut your mouth, baby, stand and deliver
Holy hands gonna make me a sinner
Like a river, like a river
Shut your mouth and run me like a river
Choke this love 'til the veins start to shiver
One last breath 'til the tears start to wither
Like a river, like a river
Shut your mouth and run me like a river

Tales of an endless heart
Cursed is the fool who's willing
Can't change the way we are
One kiss away from killing

Don't you say, don't you say it
Don't say, don't you say it
One breath, it'll just break it
So shut your mouth and run me like a river

Shut your mouth, baby, stand and deliver
Holy hands gonna make me a sinner
Like a river, like a river
Shut your mouth and run me like a river
Choke this love 'til the veins start to shiver
One last breath 'til the tears start to wither
Like a river, like a river
Shut your mouth and run me like a river

Hey! Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh!
Hey! Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh!
Hey! Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh!
Hey! Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh!
Like a river

Shut your mouth, baby, stand and deliver
Holy hands gonna make me a sinner
Like a river, like a river
Shut your mouth and run me like a river
Choke this love 'til the veins start to shiver
One last breath 'til the tears start to wither
Like a river, like a river
Shut your mouth and run me like a river
