I don't know why I love you like I do After all the changes that you put me through You stole my money and my cigarettes And I haven't seen how to have you yet I wanna know, oh wont you'll tell me? Just tell me how, how could I stay, here with you? Oh will you take me to the river And wash me down Just take me to the river Put my feet back on the ground I don't know why you treated me so bad After all the good times that we could have had Love is an ocean, that I can't forget My sweet sixteen I would never regret I wanna know, oh wont you tell me? Tell me how, how could I stay, here with you? You want to take me to the river And help me wash me down Just take me to the river Put my feet back on the ground Hold me, squeeze me, hold me and you can tease me Until I cant take no more, oh no more, no more, no more I just don't know why I love you like I do All the changes that you put me through Your sixteen candles they burn on my wall Now whos the biggest fool of us all I wanna know, oh wont you tell me? Just tell me how, how could I stay, here with you? Oh will you take me to the river And help to wash me down Just take me to the river Put my feet back on the ground Oh will you take me to the river And help to wash me down Oh will you take me to the river Put my feet back on the ground
