Lyrics Take Me To The River - The Commitments
I
don′t
know
why
I
love
you
like
I
do
After
all
these
changes
that
you
put
me
through
You
stole
my
money
and
my
cigarettes
And
I
haven't
seen
hide
nor
hair
of
you
yet
I
wanna
know
Won′t
you
tell
me
(Won't

tell
me)
am
I
in
love
to
stay?
(Take

me)
Take
me
to
the
river
(Take

Get
my

I
don′t
know
why
you
treated
me
so
bad
After
all
these
things
that
we
could
have
had
Love
is
a
notion
that
I
won′t
forget
My
sweet
sixteen,
now
I
never
regret
I
wanna
know
Won't
you
tell
me
(Won′t

my
soul?

my
feet
on
the
