River Lea

Everybody tells me it's about time that I moved on

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

But my heart is a valley...

It's so shallow and man made

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

Ohhhhh I can't go back

But the reeves are growing out of my fingertips

I can't go back to the river

But it's in my roots, it's in my veins

It's in my blood

And I stain every heart

that I use to heal the pain

It's in my roots

It's in my veins

It's in my blood

And I stain every heart

That I use to heal the pain

So I blame it on the River Lea

The River Lea, the River Lea

Yeah I blame it on the River Lea

The River Lea, the River Lea

So I blame it on the River Lea

The River Lea, the River Lea

Yeah I blame it on the River Lea

The River Lea, the River Lea

I should probably tell you now

before it's way too late

That I never meant to hurt you

or lie straight to your face

Consider this my apology

I know it's years in advance

But I'd rather say it now

in case I never get the chance

No I can't go back

But the reeves are growing out of my fingertips

I can't go back to the river.

But it's in my roots, it's in my veins

It's in my blood

And I stain every heart

That I use to heal the pain

It's in my roots, it's in my veins

It's in my blood

And I stain every heart

That I use to heal the pain

So I blame it on the River Lea

The River Lea, the River Lea

Yeah I blame it on the River Lea

The River Lea, the River Lea

So I blame it on the River Lea

The River Lea, the River Lea

Yeah I blame it on the River Lea

The River Lea, the River Lea
