Текст песни

[Verse 1:]
Everybody tells me it's 'bout time that I moved on,
And I need to learn to lighten up and learn how to be young,
But my heart is a valley, it's so shallow and manmade,
I'm scared to death if I let you in, that you'll see I'm just a fake.
Sometimes I feel lonely in the arms of your touch,
But I know that's just me ‘cause nothing ever is enough,
When I was a child, I grew up by the River Lea,
There was something in the water, now that something's in me.
Oh, I can't go back, but the reeds are growing out of my fingertips,
I can't go back to the river.

[Chorus:]
But it's in my roots, it's in my veins,
It's in my blood, and I stain every heart that I use to heal the pain.
But it's in my roots, it's in my veins,
It's in my blood, and I stain every heart that I use to heal the pain.
So I blame it on the River Lea, the River Lea, the River Lea,
Yeah, I blame it on the River Lea, the River Lea, the River Lea.

[Verse 2:]
I should probably tell you now before it's way too late
That I never meant to hurt you or lie straight to your face,
Consider this my apology, I know it's years in advance,
But I'd rather say it now in case I never get the chance.
No, I can't go back, but the reeds are growing out of my fingertips,
I can't go back to the river.

[Chorus:]
But it's in my roots, it's in my veins,
It's in my blood, and I stain every heart that I use to heal the pain.
But it's in my roots, it's in my veins,
It's in my blood, and I stain every heart that I use to heal the pain.
So I blame it on the River Lea, the River Lea, the River Lea,
Yeah, I blame it on the River Lea, the River Lea, the River Lea.
So I blame it on the River Lea, the River Lea, the River Lea,
Yeah, I blame it on the River Lea, the River Lea, the River Lea.

[Outro:]
River Lea, River Lea,
River Lea, River Lea,
River Lea, River Lea,
River Lea, River Lea…
