Take me to the river, baby

Let my heart burn

With all the rubble and the ashes

Of your last words

Set my heart free

Let it float upon the river, baby

Tell me that you love me one more time

Even though you don't mean it

I'll take it as a lie

Cause something is better than nothing to me

Hold me like you did back in July

Kiss me on the lips just one more time

Hold me tight and never let me go

Take me back even though I know the answer's no

Maybe one day we'll work out but what if there's no maybe

All I wanted from you was for you to call me baby

Cause something is better than nothing to me

So we can be friends

Take me to the high tops, baby

Throw my heart off the highest mountain you can find

Lie to me and say that you're mine

Send my heart free

Let it fly into the high skies, baby

Tell me that you need me one more time

Even though you don't mean it

I'll take it as a lie

Cause something is better than nothing to me

Hold me like you did back in the summer

Kiss me on the lips and say there's no other

Hold me tight and never let me go

Take me back even though I know the answer's no

Maybe one day we'll work out but what if there's no maybe

All I wanted from you was for you to call me baby

Cause something is better than nothing to me

So we can be friends

So we can be friends

Hold me like you did when you were mine

Kiss me on the lips and say everything's fine

Hold me tight and never let me go

Take me back even though I know the answer's no

Cause something is better than nothing to me
