I DONT KNOW WHY I LOVE YOU LIKE I DO
AFTER ALL THESE CHANGES THAT YOU'VE PUT ME THROUGH
YOU STOLE MY MONEY AND MY CIGARETTES
AND I HAVEN'T SEEN NEITHER THE WORST OF YOU YET
* Bridge:
I WANNA KNOW, WONT YOU TELL ME (WONT YOU TELL ME)
I LOVE YOU STILL (TAKE ME, TAKE ME)
* Chorus:
TAKE ME TO THE RIVER (TAKE ME TO THE RIVER)
WASH ME DOWN (WASH ME DOWN)
WONT YOU CLEANSE MY SOUL (OOHH MY SOUL)
GET MY FEET ON THE GROUND (ON THE GROUND YEH!)
* Verse 2:
I DONT KNOW WHY YOU TREATED ME SO BAD
AFTER ALL THESE THINGS THAT WE COULD'VE HAD
LOVE IS A NOTION THAT I WONT FORGET
MY SWEET 16 I WILL NEVER REGRET

HOLD ME (HOLD ME)
