Song lyrics Take me to the river by Annie Lennox

I donīt know why I love you like I do
All the changes you put me through
Take my money,my cigarettes
I havenīt seen the worst of it yet
I wanna know,can you tell me
Iīd really like to stay

*Take me to the river
Drop me in the water
Take me to the river
Drop me in the water

Wash me down,wash me down
Wash me down,wash me down

I donīt know why you treat me so bad
Think of all the thing that we could have had
Love is an ocean
And I canīt forget my sweet sixteen
Iīll never fret
I wanna know,can you tell me
Iīd really like to stay

(*Repeat)

Love me,squeeze me
Love me,tease me
Till I canīt,till I canīt
Till I canīt,till I canīt-

I donīt know why I love you like I do
All the trouble that you put me through
Sixteen candles blowinī on the wall
And here I am the biggest fool of all
I wanna know,can you tell me
Iīd really like to stay

Take me to the river
Drop me in the water
Dip me in the water
Drop me in the water
Dip me in the water
Drop me in the water...
