Written by Dave Buker & the Historians
Lyrics by Dave Buker

Produced, mixed, and mastered by Jay Alton

lyrics

Oh love
Like a river bank in a flood
It can only hold so much
And if you keep pouring on that water
We will drown before we can breach
I want to pull you out and dry you off
And keep you safe on the beach

Oh love
Want to wash your hands clean of
Want to raise yourself above
It’s not real unless it’s tough
And every time you felt your little heart break
You thought you’d learn a little more
But the truth is every heart that breaks
Is a little more sure

That maybe there’s nothing we can do
(I won’t give up on us)
If all the words you say won’t help you to admit the truth
It’s something I just have to do
(I won’t give up)
It’s not giving up, it’s giving in
It’s best for me and you

I want what you want
But that won’t make you stay
Is your love enough?
Are you giving up?
I need the same as you need
Is that all that you can say?
