Hold Back The River (Live)

Hold Back The River (Live) - James Bay

Lyrics by：Iain Archer/James Bay

Tried to keep you close to me

But life got in between

Tried to square not being there

But think that I

I should have been

Hold back the river

Let me look in your eyes

Hold back the river

So I

Can stop for a minute

And see where you hide

Hold back the river

Hold back

Once upon a different life

We rode our bikes into the sky

But now we crawl against the tide

Those distant days are flashing by

Ayyyee

Hold back the river

Let me look in your eyes

Hold back the river

So I

Can stop for a minute

And be by your side

Hold back the river

Hold back

Hold back the river

Let me look in your eyes

Hold back the river

So I

Can stop for a minute

And see where you hide

Hold back the river

Hold back

Yeahhh

Hold oho

Oho

Oho oho

Lonely water

Lonely water

Won't you let us wander

Let us hold each

Come on let me see your hands

Lonely water

Yeahh

Lonely water

Won't you let us wander

Let us hold each other

Hold back the river

Let me look in your eyes

Hold back the river

So I

Can stop for a minute and be by your side

Hold back the river

Hold back

Hold back the river

Let me look in your eyes

Hold back the river

So I

Can stop for a minute and be by your side

Hold back the river

Hold

Lonely water

Lonely water

Won't you let us wander

Let us hold each other

Yeah

Lonely water

Lonely water

Won't you let us wander

Let us hold each

Come on

Lonely water

Lonely water

Won't you let us wander

Let us hold each other

Lonely water

Lonely water

Won't you let us wander

Let us hold each other

Lonely water

Yeah yeah yeah

Lonely water

Won't you let us wander

Let us hold each other
