[Verse 1]
You hold me out
You are all I've got
We've tried to make it stop
But maybe we don't try enough

[Chorus]
We keep on running like a river, river
We keep on talking but it's making it worse
Into the darkest night, we keep on running like a river, river

[Verse 2]
You're all I need
And I've tried relentlessly
Giving you up is the hardest part
On the edge of what we are

[Chorus]
We keep on running like a river, river
We keep on talking but it's making it worse
Into the darkest night, we keep on running like a river, river
We keep on running like a river, river
We keep on talking but it's making it worse
Into the darkest night, we keep on running like a river, river

[Middle 8]
Even though I see the end and I've had enough
I can't make it stop, I can't make it stop
Even though I said I never wanna fall in love
I can't make it stop, will you make it stop
[Chorus]
Oh, we keep on running like a river, river
We keep on talking but it's making it worse
Into the darkest night, we keep on running like a river, river
We keep on running like a river, river
We keep on talking but it's making it worse
Into the darkest night, we keep on running like a river, river

[Outro]
Even though I see the end and I've had enough
I can't make it stop, I can't make it stop
Even though I said I never wanna fall in love
I can't make it stop, will you make it stop
