River Lea

Everybody tells me it's '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 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 Oh it's in my roots In my veins 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 its way too late That I never meant to hurt you or to lie straight to your face Consider this my apology I know it's 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 Oh it's in my roots In my veins 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
