Testo River

I've got a river, got a river in my body
It's flowing for free
When I let you go, I'll keep going the stream

Meet me in a liminal space
In the place between you and me
But it's all gone and the world's wide to claim
Where do I go? Alone again, alone
I stay here looking for you
I stay here looking for you
And where do I go? I'm here, I'm sitting alone
Looking at you from the stones
On the shore I've known

And I've got a river, got a river in my body
It's flowing for free
When I let you go, I'll keep moving on down the stream

Ceiling fans looking at me like a damn
Toy in a claw machine
Where I'd be stuck inside these walls forever
Fighting at the fear in me

I've got a river
It grows deeper than I thought it could be
I've got a river
It flows to you in the space between
And I've got a river, got a river in my body
You don't know what it means
But you will belong to
Yeah, you will

Where do I go? Alone again, alone
I stay here looking for you
I stay here looking for you
And where do I go? I'm here, I'm sitting alone
Looking at you from the stones
On the shore I've known

And I've got a river, got a river in my body
It's flowing for free
When I let you go, I'll keep moving down the stream

I've got a river, got a river in my body
It's flowing for free
When I let you go, it's all it'll be
