Little Boots – River lyrics

[Intro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]
My heartbreak flows
Like a river in reverse
Like a river in reverse
Like a river in reverse
My heartbreak flows
Like a river in reverse
Like a river in reverse
Like a river in reverse

[Verse 1]
Starting out at the sea
Drowning like I can’t breathe
Till I found the strength to leave to the land
Sucking back into me
I’m evaporating
Till I’m nothing but cracked dirt and sand

[Pre-Chorus]
And I don’t know what I am grieving
Name or face or time or feeling

[Chorus]
My heartbreak flows
Like a river in reverse
Like a river in reverse
Like a river in reverse
My heartbreak flows
Like a river in reverse
Like a river in reverse
Like a river in reverse

[Verse 2]
Can anything really grow
On the scorched earth below?
Dreaming of green and gold once again
And when the damn bursts I know
I’ll come out cleansed and cold
Love a bit less so I won’t forget

[Pre-Chorus]
And I don’t know what I’m grieving
Name or face or time or feeling

[Chorus]
My heartbreak flows
Like a river in reverse
Like a river in reverse
Like a river in reverse

[Bridge]
Everything you took from me
Everything I had to leave
Everything I’ve got to be
Is coming, coming to me
Everything you took from me
Everything I had to leave
Everything I’ve got to be
Is coming, coming to me
Coming, coming to me
Coming, coming to me
Coming, coming to me
Into me

[Chorus]
My heartbreak flows
Like a river in reverse
Like a river in reverse
Like a river in reverse
My heartbeat flows
Like a river in reverse
Like a river in reverse
Like a river in reverse

[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
