The River Runs Dry

I am so messed up I can't help myself
I can't picture her with nobody else
The wind comes and it goes
But where to no one knows
Can you feel the change in pressure?
Rain falls and floods rise
Like clockwork every time
To the bottom of the dry beds in the desert
Don't you act so surprised
When I get a little jealous sometimes
It was always gonna be that kind of ride
Until the river runs dry
And oh baby when the river runs dry
I don't wanna live that kind of life
She is so pristine she can't help herself
I might put her up on the highest shelf
The wind comes and it goes
But where to no one knows
You know I'm not talking 'bout the weather
Rain falls, floods rise
Like clockwork every time
Into the god forsaken places under Heaven
Don't you act so surprised
When I get a little jealous sometimes
It was always gonna be that kind of ride
Until the river runs dry
And oh baby when the river runs dry
I don't wanna live that kind of life
When those floodgates open
Then you'll know it's in motion
Well that's just a drop in the ocean
Of all of my sweet devotion
The mountain is piling higher
With the longing that I've acquired
I use it to feed this fire
That burns with a sweet desire
Baby you can put your faith in me
You know that I can't fake it
When I feel that excitation
That sweet sensation
(Nobody is going to stop me, I'm only human)
Don't you act so surprised
When I get a little jealous sometimes
It was always gonna be that kind of ride
Until the river runs dry
And oh baby when the river runs dry
I don't wanna live that kind of life
