What am I to do with you
Have I done enough
I've got nothing left to give
If this is how you want to live, I guess I'll wait outside
Why is it colder when you're here
And why do I cry so many tears when all I want is your love
And if you ever want to know about the things I love
All you have to do is ask
You've never done that in the past, but maybe one day
[CHORUS]
And love is a river it flows down to the people
Then goes up to the clouds to rain again
And love is a danger it can make you let your guard down
But if you are never broken you will never be made whole
