I Follow Rivers Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Oh, I beg you
Can I follow?
Oh, I ask you
Why not always?
Be the ocean
Where I unravel
Be my only
Be the water where I'm wading
[Pre-Chorus]
You're my river running high
Run deep, run wild
[Chorus]
I, I follow
I follow you, deep sea baby
I follow you
I, I follow
I follow you, dark doom honey
I follow you
[Verse 2]
He a message
I'm the runner
He the rebel
I'm the daughter waiting for you
[Pre-Chorus]
You're my river running high
Run deep, run wild
[Chorus]
I, I follow
I follow you, deep sea baby
I follow you
I, I follow
I follow you, dark doom honey
I follow you
[Bridge]

Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
[Pre-Chorus]
You're my river running high
Run deep, run wild
[Chorus]
I, I follow
I follow you, deep sea baby
I follow you
I, I follow
I follow you, dark doom honey
I follow you
I, I follow
I follow you, deep sea baby
I follow you
I, I follow
I follow you, dark doom honey
I follow you
