Hold Back The River Lyrics - Singles - Wet Wet Wet

Stop your pretending 

Listen to what I've got to say 

How your head's went away 

Only here for a day 

And that grave I just made 

Is for me when I get paid 

Won't you wait a while 

Move to the blue 

Sometimes people don't want to say 

Old time dancers don't die that way 

See that grave I've just made 

It's for me when I get paid 

Somebody's gotta hold back the river 

Somebody like you

Listen To Taylor Swift's New Song 'Call It What You Want' 

Do you love and surrender 

Sometimes I don't feel I can remember 

I think it's fair to mention 

About the days when I get paid 

Somebody's gotta hold back the river 

Somebody like you 

Somebody's gotta hold back the river 

Somebody like you 

I want a little loving 

I told you all to listen 

But you never liked what you heard 

I take what I am given 

This may sound absurd 

I share a double vision 

That started the transition 

Hey where's jimmy jazz 

Steady on the scale

I told you to listen 

I told you all to listen 

Somebody's gotta hold back the river 

Somebody like you 

Somebody's gotta hold back the river 

Somebody like you 

You know that somebody 

You know that somebody 

You know that somebody 

But it ain't you
