River Lea Lyrics - Adele

1 Everybody tells me it's 'bout time that I moved on

2 And I need to learn to lighten up and learn how to be young

3 But my heart is a valley, it's so shallow and man made

4 I'm scared to death if I let you in that you'll see I'm just a fake

5 Sometimes I feel lonely in the arms of your touch

6 But I know that's just me cause nothing ever is enough

7 When I was a child I grew up by the River Lea

8 There was something in the water, now that something's in me

9 Oh I can't go back, but the reeds are growing out of my fingertips

10 I can't go back to the river

11 But it's in my roots, in my veins

12 It's in my blood and I stain every heart that I use to heal the pain

13 Oh, It's in my roots, in my veins

14 It's in my blood and I stain every heart that I use to heal the pain

15 So I blame it on the River Lea, the River Lea, the River Lea

16 Yeah I blame it on the River Lea, the River Lea, the River Lea

17 I should probably tell you now before it's way too late

18 That I never meant to hurt you or lie straight to your face

19 Consider this my apology, I know it's years in advance

20 But I'd rather say it now in case I never get the chance

21 No I can't go back, but the reeds are growing out of my fingertips

22 I can't go back to the river

23 But it's in my roots, in my veins

24 It's in my blood and I stain every heart that I use to heal the pain

25 Oh, It's in my roots, in my veins

26 It's in my blood and I stain every heart that I use to heal the pain

27 So I blame it on the River Lea, the River Lea, the River Lea

28 Yeah I blame it on the River Lea, the River Lea, the River Lea

29 So I blame it on the River Lea, the River Lea, the River Lea

30 Yeah I blame it on the River Lea, the River Lea, the River Lea

31 River Lea, River Lea

32 River Lea, River Lea

33 River Lea, River Lea

34 River Lea, River Lea

35 The River Lea-Lea-Lea-Lea

36 The River Lea-Lea-Lea-Lea

37 The River Lea-Lea-Lea-Lea

38 The River Lea-Lea-Lea-Lea
