Aiden Brown - Black Like The River

Girl I was never the lovin' kind
So I took my solace in a bottle of shine
You said I can't feel nothin'
Goddamn you were right
So you took off runnin'
In the middle of the night
I guess I never treated you well
You wanted heaven, I gave you hell
So when you left that night
In the cold
It's a wonder why
I couldn't just let you up and go
Because my blood runs
Black like the river
At midnight honey
When the North wind calls
And I cannot
Love you any better
Than to tell you
That I never loved you at all
God knows why it took so long
Forty nights, you were gone
Guess I should of known
You'd head back home
Down to Louisiana
But you didn't go alone
Now girl I was never the jealous kind
And empty heart means a quiet mind
But I had demons screaming in my head
I lost sight of wrong and right
Yeah, I was only seeing red
And my blood runs
Black like the river
At midnight honey
When the North wind calls
And I cannot
Love you any better
Than to tell you
That I never loved you at all
Ain't been sleeping too much these days
I walk these streets at night in a haze
But this river's cold
And this bridge is high
And this sinner's soul
It was never meant to fly
My blood runs
Black like the river
At midnight honey
When the North wind calls
And I cannot
Love you any better
Than to tell you
That I never loved you at all
My blood runs
Black like the river
At midnight honey
When the North wind calls
And I cannot
Love you any better
Than to tell you
That I never loved you at all
But you know I'm a liar
And the truth is
I can't live without you no more
