Dave Grusin - Take Me to the River lyrics

[Verse 1] I don't know why I love you like I do With all the changes you put me through Take my money, my cigarettes I haven't seen the worst of it yet [Pre-Chorus] I wanna know, can you tell me Am I in love to stay [Chorus] Take me to the river Drop me in the water Take me to the river Dip me in the water, washing me down Washing me down [Verse 2] I don't know why you treat me so bad Think of all the things that we could've had Love is a notion that I can't forget My sweet sixteen, I won't ever regret [Pre-Chorus] I wanna know, can you tell me Am I in love to stay [Chorus] Take me to the river Drop me in the water Take me to the river Dip me in the water, washing me down Washing me [Bridge] Hold me Squeeze me Love me Taste me Till I can't, till I can't I can't take no more [Chorus (altered)] Dip me in the water Drop me in the river Push me in the water Dunk me in the water, washing me down Washing me down [Verse 3] I don't know why I love you like I do All the trouble you put me through Sixteen candles hanging on the wall And here I am the biggest fool of them all [Pre-Chorus] I wanna know, can you tell me Am I in love to stay [Chorus] Take me to the river Drop me in the water Take me to the river Dip me in the water, washing me down Washing me down (Take me to the river) (Take me to the river) (Take me to the river) (Take me to the river) (Take me to the river) (Take me to the river) (Take me to the river) (Take me to the river) (Take me to the river) (Take me to the river)
