River - Leon Bridges

Been traveling these wide roads for so long

My heart's been far from you

Ten-thousand miles gone

Oh, I wanna come near and give

Every part of me

But there is blood on my hands

And my lips are unclean

In my darkness I remember

Momma's words reoccur to me

"Surrender to the good Lord

And he'll wipe your slate clean"

Take me to your river

I wanna go

Oh, go on

Take me to your river

I wanna know

Tip me in your smooth water

I go in

As a man with many crimes

Come up for air

As my sins flow down the Jordan

Oh, I wanna come near and give

Every part of me

But there is blood on my hands

And my lips are unclean

Take me to your river

I wanna go

Go on

Take me to your river

I wanna know

I wanna go, wanna go, wanna go

I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know

Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go

Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know

Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go

Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know

Take me to your river

I wanna go

Lord, please let me know

Take me to your river

I wanna know
