the river

Rachel Platten

I wanna dance in the Sun, howl at the Moon
Whatever I can to get through to you
Cause you re miles and miles away
And I wrestle at night with the pain in my heart
Keep to myself, bleed in the dark
And in the mornin , I say I m okay
Maybe I ll tell you the truth
Cause even if it all falls apart
Well, it s not as
if I haven t been broken fifty times before

So flow me like a river
You re hungry like the sea
I give you all I have, but even after that
You still want more from m?
You re hungry like the riv?r
And I m open like the sea
How can this be love when I m never enough?
I m not whatchu need

I think the damage was done before twenty-one
When someone you trusted threatened to run
So you held on with everythin
Now, I keep you fillin you up
but there s a hole in the well
And the love that you want is deep in yourself
And I can t do this anymore

So flow me like a river
You re hungry like the sea
I give you all I have, but even after that
You still want more from me
You re hungry like the river
And I m open like the sea
How can this be love when I m never enough?
I m not whatchu need

I m not whatchu need
I m not whatchu need
Tell me what you love, It s never enough
I m not whatchu need
Tell me whatchu need
Tell me whatchu need
Ooh
Tell me whatchu need

Flow me like a river
You re hungry like the sea
I give you all I have, but even after that
You still want more from me

So flow me like a river
You re hungry like the sea
I give you all I have, but even after that
You still want more from me
You re hungry like the river
And I m open like the sea
How can this be love if I m never enough?
I m not whatchu need

Feel my love, feel my love, feel my love, babe
Feel my love, feel my love, feel my love, babe
Ooh, I m not whatchu need
Yeah, I m not whatchu need
I m not whatchu need
I m not whatchu need
Mm, mm
I m not whatchu need
