Rivers Run Deep

Lyrics for the song ‘Rivers Run Deep’ by Abu Sayed. Explore the story behind the music.

I feel the current pulling when you look my way
Like a southern summer rolling through the grey
Your shadow dancing slowly by the firelight
I wanna get lost in your deep waters tonight
The dust settles down on this quiet town road
Leaving just me and you and this heavy load
Of things we ain't saying but I know you feel
Just the spin of the earth and the turn of the wheel
There's a spark in the dark of your eyes I see
And it's burning a path straight down to me
I can't fight the tide when you pull me close
You're the only kind of danger I want the most
'Cause rivers run deep when they're flowing to the sea
And nothing in this world's gonna stop you and me
From riding this wave till the break of the dawn
With your hand in my hand, yeah we're already gone
So let the water rise and let the levee break
I'm ready for whatever love we're gonna make
Yeah the rivers run deep
And you're pulling me, pulling me in
The whiskey in my glass is starting to burn
But it ain't got nothing on the way that you turn
And whisper my name with that soft little sigh
Got me falling so fast from the edge of the sky
There's a spark in the dark of your eyes I see
And it's burning a path straight down to me
I can't fight the tide when you pull me close
You're the only kind of danger I want the most
'Cause rivers run deep when they're flowing to the sea
And nothing in this world's gonna stop you and me
From riding this wave till the break of the dawn
With your hand in my hand, yeah we're already gone
So let the water rise and let the levee break
I'm ready for whatever love we're gonna make
Yeah the rivers run deep
And you're pulling me, pulling me in
The quiet of the night is wrapped around us tight
Just tell me what you want and Sayed will make it right
Just let go, let the current take us.
'Cause rivers run deep when they're flowing to the sea
And nothing in this world's gonna stop you and me
From riding this wave till the break of the dawn
With your hand in my hand, yeah we're already gone
So let the water rise and let the levee break
I'm ready for whatever love we're gonna make
