River Lea (Lyrics and Audio)

Everybody tells me its ‘bout time that I moved on

That I need to learn to lighten up and learn how to be young

But my heart is a valley it’s so shallow and manmade

I’m scared to death if I let you in that you’ll see I’m just a fake

Sometimes I feel lonely in the arms of your touch

But I know that’s just me cause nothing ever is enough

When I was a child I grew up by the River Lea

There was something in the water now that something’s in me

I can’t go back but the reeds are growing out of my fingertips

I can’t go back to the river

But it’s in my roots

In my veins

In my blood

And I stain

Every heart that I use to heal the pain x2

So I blame it on the River Lea River Lea River Lea

I should probably tell you now before its way too late

That I never meant to hurt you or to lie straight to your face

Consider this my apology I know its years in advance

But I would rather say it now incase I never get the chance

Oh I can’t go back but the reeds are growing out of my fingertips

I can’t go back to the river

But it’s in my roots

In my veins

In my blood

And I stain

Every heart that I use to heal the pain x2

So I blame it on the River Lea River Lea River Lea
