Lyrics You Are the River - Chely Wright

I fall into you
Get pulled along
Dragged out to sea
Before too long

Funny how it's me
Who made you strong
You are the river
And I'm the rain

You'd flood your banks
And you'll take out towns
I dove in
Swearing I won't drown
If only I'd just slow you down
You are the river
And I'm the rain

We're just too much now
Too much now
I guess we're both to blame

No, I don't know how
I don't know how
To stay away

And never know just when to stop
You swell with pride
Til your levees drop
A hurricane
Oh, all was lost
You are the river
And I'm the rain

We'll never change
Trying to wish us away, love
Oh but I know better
We're the perfect storm
It's just how we're made
I fall, you run

We're just too much now
Too much now
It'll always be that way

I don't know how
I don't know how
We'll ever change
You are the river
And I am the rain
I am the rain
