[Verse 1]
You and I start with a fight
Thank god I've been made for life
Now I'm waiting up for you 'til dawn
And I look like never before
Now your silhouette is showing off
Wish I was running like a waterfall
You and I start with a fight, oh

[Chorus]
The way this river flows
You got me screaming like a demon
But I can't seem to run away
The way this river flows
You got me shaking 'til I'm making
But I don't want your help
Cause still somehow
We're blowing up the sky
The way this river flows
We're starting with a fight
We're gonna fight until we get it right

[Post-Chorus]
The way this river flows
The way this river flows
[Verse 2]
You and I gotta get it right
Cause I'm neck down in time for life
And lately I've been acting cold
Been travelling and played it down
I was liking this, and now we're drifting far
From where we had it all
You and I gotta get it right, oh, oh

[Chorus]
The way this river flows
You got me screaming like a demon
But I can't seem to run away
The way this river flows
You got me shaking 'til I'm making
But I don't want your help
Cause still somehow
We're blowing up the sky
The way this river flows
We're starting with a fight
We're gonna fight until we get it right

[Bridge]
It gets me when the tide is high
I believe in your lies
Let us see my love tonight
Baby, if it feels right
It gets me when the tide is high
I believe in your lies
Let us see my love tonight
Baby, if it feels right
[Chorus]
The way this river flows
You got me screaming like a demon
But I can't seem to run away
The way this river flows
You got me shaking 'til I'm making
But I don't want your help
Cause still somehow
We're blowing up the sky
The way this river flows
We're starting with a fight
We're gonna fight until we get it right

[Post-Chorus]
The way this river flows
The way this river flows
The way this river flows
The way this river flows
The way this river flows
