Lyrics

Wandering in the desert
Throat parched and heart hurting
You sleep by day, and only the night
Will lead you back to certainty again
You’re searching, thirsting
For you don’t know what in this world
Then you see her, then you see her

You wanna carry her like a river inside
Carry her love deep and wide
Carry her cause she’s the kind of girl
To lead you right back home

Carry her like a river inside
Carry her love deep and wide
Carry her cause she’s the kind of girl
She’ll leave you rushing, she’ll leave you rushing
Right back home

Monday, find your car keys
A kiss goodbye, forty-hour week
You sleepwalk through days and pray the night
Will nurse you back to certainty again
You’re thirsting, she’s hurting
For you don’t know what in this world
Then you see her, then you see her
What does she see in you, that girl

What if it turns out she’s crazy
What if love runs dry and you’re a fool
The weight of the water could break you
Still she’s the girl, she’s the girl you’re gonna choose

You wanna carry her like a river inside
Carry her love deep and wide
Carry her cause she’s the kind of girl
Who’ll lead you right back home

Carry her like a river inside
Carry her love deep and wide
Carry her cause she’s the kind of girl
She’ll leave you rushing, leave you rushing
Yeah she’ll leave you rushing, she’ll leave you rushing
Right back home
