Sinead O'Connor - Jump in the River lyrics

rate me

(Sinead O'Connor/Marco Pirroni)

The phone calls

Always left me unsure

They'd never say things of their own accord

I am preoccupied

I can't get them out of my mind

They are terrified

And if you said jump in the river I would

Because it would probably be a good idea

You're not supposed to be here at all now

It's all been a gorgeous mistake

Sick one or clean one

The best one

That God ever made

When I kissed you

You didn't mind

I thought I tasted of too many cigarettes

But you tasted like wine

And I'm not going to change my mind

Just because of what they said

The worm has laid eggs in their hearts

But not in my head

And if you said jump in the river I would

Because it would probably be a good idea

You're not supposed to be here at all now

It's all been a gorgeous mistake

Sick one or clean one

The best one

That God ever made

There's been days like this before you know

And I liked it all

Like the times we did it so hard

There was blood on the wall

And if you said jump in the river I would

Because it would probably be a good idea

And if you said jump in the river I would

Because it would probably be a good idea
