I'll Be Your River Lyrics - The Body Acoustic - Cyndi Lauper

If you need water, I'll be your river 

Like a wave I will come over you 

You need someone to fall into, I'll be your river 

And my love will carry you through 

You like the flame and you are drawn by desire 

Watchin' and waitin' in line for your turn 

I've learned to walk with my back to the fire 

I like the heat but I don't wanna get burned 

And if you need water, I'll be your river 

Like a wave I will come over you 

You need someone to fall into, I'll be your river 

And my love will carry you through 

Here stands a fortress built with great walls of silence 

Ready to crumble at the slightest word 

Finding the right one is becoming a science 

I'd like to scream but I ain't gonna be heard 

And if you need water, I'll be your river 

Like a wave I will come over you 

You need someone to fall into, I'll be your river 

And my love will carry you through 

What if all these fields 

That we both fly into 

Melt away and disappear? 

If you need water, I'll be your river 

Like a wave I will come over you 

You need someone to fall into, I'll be your river 

And my love will carry you, my love will carry you 

My love will carry you through
