Cyndi Lauper - I'll Be Your River lyrics

If you need water I'll be your river Like a wave I will come over you You need someone to fall into I'll be your river And my love will carry you through You like the flame and you are drawn by desire Watchin' and waitin' in line for your turn I've learned to walk with my back to the fire I like the heat but I don't wanna get burned And if you need water I'll be your river Like a wave I will come over you You need someone to fall into I'll be your river And my love will carry you through Here stands a fortress built with great walls of silence Ready to crumble at the slightest word Findin' the right one is becomin' a science I'd like to scream but I ain't gonna be heard And if you need water I'll be your river Like a wave I will come over you You need someone to fall into I'll be your river And my love will carry you through What if all these fears that we both buy into Melt away and disappear If you need water I'll be your river Like a wave I will come over you You need someone to fall into I'll be your river And my love will carry you My love will carry you My love will carry you through
