River Lea

"River Lea" Lyrics

                                    - by Adele

Everybody tells me it's 'bout 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

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, it's in my veins

It's in my blood and I stain every heart that I use to heal the pain

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

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 reeds 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

River Lea, River Lea

River Lea, River Lea

River Lea, River Lea

River Lea, River Lea

The River Lea-Lea-Lea-Lea

The River Lea-Lea-Lea-Lea

The River Lea-Lea-Lea-Lea

The River Lea-Lea-Lea-Lea
