The River

I will fight the spirit With a sword in my side And she found a way out Crack my rib Wait to die I think I know you best when I sleep I think I know everything Me and my brothers We have tongues sharp as knives And I found a way out Make a noise, close your eyes I think I talk to you best when I sing I sing about almost everything Oh God I need it So let me see again Take me to the river And let me see again Oh my God Let me see again Oh my God Let me see again Let me see again Grace taught her daughter Daily I'm strained to be God how I feel it Fetter pride to your feet I'm gonna leave you the first chance I get I'm gonna leave you the first chance I get I'm gonna leave you the first chance I get I'm gonna leave you the first chance I, get And oh God I need it Well I was wrong again Take me to the river And make me clean again Oh my God Make me clean again And oh my God Let me see again --- The River - Manchester Orchestra
