Lyrics to River Lea
River Lea Video:
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
Oh it's in my roots, it's 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 it's 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'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
Oh 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

Oh... River Lea, River Lea
Oh... River Lea, River Lea
Oh... River Lea, River Lea
Oh... River Lea, River Lea

Oh... The River Lea, the River Lea...
