No Devotion
Why Can’t I Be with You?
[Verse 1]
You're a fire and you're careless
You keep burning down our dreams
I'm a shadow, running blind
I can feel you in the heat

To the river, run me to the river

And the night is a coffee cup
Dark licorice line that's been wired to the street
I can feel it in my teeth

To the river, run me to the river

From the rivers and the reeds and the burning waters
Past the nightmare streets and forgotten borders
With the whispers and the waves and the silent offers
I've been there, so why can't I be with you?

[Verse 1]

To the river, run me to the river

From the rhythm and the rage and the lonely corners
Past the blinding scenes that were falling forward
With the shivers and the shakes when the fever breaks
I've been there, so why can't I be with you?
