Karaoké Take Me to the River The Commitments

I don't know why

I love you like I do

After all these changes that you put me through

You stole my money and my cigarettes

And I haven't seen hide nor hair of you yet

I wanna know won't you tell me how I love to stay

Take me to the river and wash me down

Won't you cleanse my soul get my feet on the ground

I don't know why you treated me so bad

Look at all these things that we could have had

Love is a notion that I won't forget
