James Bay "Hold Back the River" lyrics

Hold Back the River

Tried to keep you close to me,But life got in betweenTried to square not being thereBut think that I should have been

Hold back the river, let me look in your eyesHold back the river, so ICan stop for a minute and see where you hideHold back the river, hold back

Once upon a different lifeWe rode our bikes into the skyBut now we call against the tideThose distant days are flashing by

Hold back the river, let me look in your eyesHold back the river, so ICan stop for a minute and be by your sideHold back the river, hold back

Hold back the river, let me look in your eyesHold back the river, so ICan stop for a minute and see where you hideHold back the river, hold back

Hold oho, oho, oho, ohoOho, oho, oho, oho

Lonely water, lonely water, won't you let us wanderLet us hold each otherLonely water, lonely water, won't you let us wanderLet us hold each other

Hold back the river, let me look in your eyesHold back the river, so ICan stop for a minute and be by your sideHold back the river, hold back

Hold back the river, let me look in your eyesHold back the river, so ICan stop for a minute and be by your sideHold back the river, hold

Lonely water, lonely water, won't you let us wanderLet us hold each otherLonely water, lonely water, won't you let us wanderLet us hold each other
