River by Common Sage Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Be my firefly
Keep me up, keep it down, keep me safe at night
I won't try to find out
How to float, how to breathe, how to see between
Because one day I'll get back to
That place where we started, far beyond our view

It's not so safe inside
Been looking out, staring up, waiting for a sign
Before we lose the light out
But I can't leave, can't pretend like I do anything right

[Bridge]
(When I float away)
I lost track of myself again this year
(I won't find a thing)
Keeps sticking to the past and I can't take it back
(When I float away)
And each night It follows me home
(I won't find a thing)
And eats away until i'm gone
[Verse 2]
And I wish that you would let this go, oh I'll down to the river
And I'll try to wash this off my back
And I wish that you would let this go, oh I'll fall down in the water And I'll try to savor one last breath
Oh I wish you wouldn't let me go
Oh I wish you wouldn't let me go

[Refrain]
(Wouldn't let me go)
Oh I wish you wouldn't let me go
(Wouldn't let me go)
Oh I wish you wouldn't let me go
