[Intro]
I'm a river, ooh, I'm a river
So shut your mouth and run me like a river

[Verse 1]
How do you fall in love?
Harder than a bullet could hit you
How do we fall apart?
Faster than a hairpin trigger

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
Shut your mouth, baby, stand and deliver
Holy hands, will they 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, likе a river
Shut your mouth and run me like a rivеr

[Verse 2]
Tales of an endless heart
Cursed is the fool who's willing
I can't change the way we are
One kiss away from killing

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
Shut your mouth, baby, stand and deliver
Holy hands, will they 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

[Bridge]
Like a river, like a river
Like a river, like a river
Like a river, like a river
Shut your mouth and run me like a river
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh!
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh!
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh! (Like a river)

[Chorus]
Shut your mouth, baby, stand and deliver
Holy hands, will they 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
