The Gray Havens
Rhythm of the East
[Intro]
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

[Verse 1]
I was going down by the river
Found I was cold and couldn't speak
I started hearing something in the silence next to me
I remember now in December how like a split-second dream
I heard a summer song, if I get it wrong, you can find it in the East

[Pre-Chorus]
It's going
It's going
It's going
It's going
We're going

[Chorus]
Don't let me go
Don't leave me behind
I want you so bad to stay this time
[Verse 2]
Yeah, looking back, I remember that I wouldn't say that I was well
But there's a certain sickness that's better than health
'Cause everyday was another way trying to get back to the dream
Of the summer song, if I get it wrong you can find it in the East

[Pre-Chorus]
It's going
It's going
It's going
It's going
We're going

[Chorus]
Don't let me go
Don't leave me behind
I want you so bad to stay this time

[Bridge]
'Cause I'll be sorry once you're gone
So if you're going, don't be long
Yeah, I'll be sorry once you're gone
So if you're going, don't be long

[Chorus]
Don't leave me behind
I want you so bad to stay this time
Don't let me go
Don't leave me behind
I want you so bad to stay this time
[Outro]
I'll be sorry
I'll be sorry
I'll be sorry
Don't be long
