Between the church and the river
My love waits for me to stand and deliver
Every promise that I've ever made
I want to keep them now
And I am not afraid
I won't let you go
Even when you run all the way home
I won't let you go
I won't let you go
Oh no
Between the church and the river
My love gives to me, she makes me a giver
I am so full of this light
It lives in my stomach
And feeds me all through the night
I won't let you go
I know you think you're safer on your own
I won't let you go
I won't let you go
Oh no
