Riverbed (Stripped) Lyrics by Rust

2018

[Verse 1]

They asked me where I'd been
I sat by the river and
Prayed that I'd fall in
When I heard you call

Your voice would come from the ground
A melody composed
From the movement that's all around
I heard it all

The trees sway as you breathe
You're deep underwater
But the wind is how you sing
To me

[Chorus]

I'd tie my feet to rocks if they
Would sink me down
To you to see
How you move

I'd breathe in deep to feel you on
The riverbed where you lie
Share the pain of water taking
All we have inside

I grew to hate the air
That I held in my lungs
Bring me back the faith I had
When I was young

[Bridge]

(Ooooh)
(Ooooh)
(Ooooh)
(Ooooh)

[Verse 2]

They asked me if I'd found
What I was looking for
And I was looking for
You

Well I looked back when you were still
The sun upon my skin
The home you held in me that night
When I cast out my sins

If I could find you
Now
If I could find
You

[Chorus]

I'd tie my feet to rocks if they
Would sink me down
To you to see
How you move

(Oh)

I'd breathe in deep to feel you on
The riverbed where you lie
Share the pain of water taking
All we have inside

I grew to hate the air
That I held in my chest
Just give me a reason and
I won't try to hold my breath

[Bridge]

(Mmmmm)
(Mmmmm)

(Oooooh)
(Oooooh)
(Oooooh)
(Oooooh)
