Hold Back The River Lyrics - Chaos And The Calm - James Bay

Tried to keep you close to me 

But life got inbetween 

Tried to square not being there 

But think that I should have been 

Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes 

Hold back the river, so I 

Stop for a minute and see where you hide 

Hold back the river, hold back 

Once upon a different life 

We rode our bikes into the sky 

But now we crawl against the time 

Those distant days are flashing by 

Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes 

Hold back the river, so I 

Stop for a minute and be by your side 

Hold back the river, hold back

Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes 

Hold back the river so I 

Stop for a minute and see where you hide 

Hold back the river, hold back 

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh 

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh 

Lonely water, lonely water 

Won't you let us wonder 

Let us hold each other 

Lonely water, lonely water 

Won't you let us wonder 

Let us hold each other 

Hold back the river, let me look in your eyes 

Hold back the river, so I 

Stop for a minute and be by your side 

Hold back the river, hold back
