"Run With The River" lyrics

I got my feet and both your hands
Dragging me down, down to the water's edge
I put my love inside of yours
I had to fight, fight for you to let it go

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven times I tried to change
But you always pulled me under when I'm close
So one, two, three, four, five, six, seven times I stayed the same
Baby, you're about to reap just what you sow

I won't run with the river
I'll let it wash all over me
And the girl I used to be
Until she's gone, gone forever
Yeah, you tried to drown me out
But you'll listen to me now

I won't run with the river
I won't run with the river
I won't run with the river
I won't

I put the bottle to my lips
I felt the shot burn right where it hit
And I couldn't stop until I did
Part of me died so the rest of me could live

For all the tears you don't deserve
All the lessons that I learned
All the times you left me out here on my own
For all the pieces that you took
You know how insecure you look?
Baby, you're about to reap just what you sow

So I won't run with the river
I'll let it wash all over me
And the girl I used to be
Until she's gone (Until she's), gone forever (Gone forever)
Yeah, you tried to drown me out
But you'll listen to me now

I won't run with the river (Oh-oh)
I won't run with the river
I won't run with the river
I won't run (Run)
I won't run with the river
I won't run with the river (Run)
I won't run with the river
I won't
