River – Ed Sheeran – letras

I’ve been a liar, been a thiefBeen a lover, been a cheatAll my sins need holy waterFeel it washing over meOh, little one, I don’t wanna admit to somethingIf all it’s gonna cause is painTruth in my lies right now, are falling like the rainSo let the river runHe’s coming home with his neck scratchedTo catch flackSweat jackets and dress slacks, mismatchOn his breast jacket’s a sex addictAnd she just wants to exact revenge and get backIt’s a chess match, she’s on his backLike a jet packShe’s kept track of all his internet chatsAnd guess who just happens to be moving on to the next?Actually, just shit on my last chickAnd she has what my ex lacks’Cause she loves danger, psychopathAnd you don’t fuck with no man’s girl, even I know thatBut she’s devised some plan to stab him in the backKnife-in-hand scissor relationships hanging by a strandSo she’s been on the web latelySays maybe she’ll be my Gwen Stacy, to spite her manAnd I know she’s using me to try to play himI don’t care, hi Susan, but I shoulda said « Bye Susan »After the first night, but tonight I amI’ve been a liar, been a thiefBeen a lover, been a cheatAll my sins need holy waterFeel it washing over meOh, little one, I don’t wanna admit to somethingIf all it’s gonna cause is painTruth in my lies right now, are falling like the rainSo let the river runOne-night standTurned in two-night standHe was calling so might scramNow we hug tight, andHe found out, now she feels deserted and used’Cause he left, so what? He did it first to her tooNow how am I supposed to tell this girl that we’re through?It’s hard to find the words, I’m aloof, nervous, ensuedAnd witnessed you hurtBut what you deserve is the truthDon’t take it personal, I just can’t say this in person to youSo I revert to the studio like Hole in the Wall dinersDon’t have to be reserved in a boothI just feel like the person who I’m turning into’sIrreversible, I preyed on youLike it’s church at the pewAnd now that I got you I don’t want youTook advantage of my thirst to pursueWhy do I do this dirt that I do?Get on my soapbox and preach, my sermon, and speechDetergent and bleach is burning the wound’Cause now with her in the wombWe can’t bring her in this world, shoulda knewTo use protection ‘fore I bit into your forbidden fruit… fuck!I’ve been a liar, been a thiefBeen a lover, been a cheatAll my sins need holy waterFeel it washing over meOh, little one, I don’t wanna admit to somethingIf all it’s gonna cause is painTruth in my lies right now, are falling like the rainSo let the river runMy name’s (ooh) , my name’s (ooh)Denver (ooh) , watch the river runCall me (ooh) , call me (ooh)River (ooh) , we’ll let the river runAlways the bridesmaid, never « The bride, hey! « Fuck can I say? If life was a highwayThe seat was an enclave, I’d be swerving in five lanesSpeeds at a high rate, like I’m sliding on ice, maybeThat’s why I made they came at you sidewaysI can’t keep my lies straightWell, I made you terminate, my babyThis love triangle, left us in a wreck-tangledWhat else can I say? It was fun for a whileBet I really woulda loved your smileDidn’t really wanna abort, but fuck itWhat’s one more lieTo tell a unborn child?I’ve been a liar, been a thiefBeen a lover, been a cheatAll my sins need holy waterFeel it washing over meOh, little one (I’m sorry) , I don’t wanna admit to something(I fucked up) If all it’s gonna cause is painThe truth in my lies now, are falling like the rainSo let the river run
