Essie & Paul Video (MV)

Our love is like a river
Overflowing over time, running wild
Filled with life
Our love is complicated, living lies and compromise
Side-by-side
Speaking our minds

We both made this bed
We can't fit the whole world into it
Tie our threads into a life that fits

If it's gonna make you happy
If it's gonna set us free
If it's gonna hold us steady
Then it's what we need
If it's gonna make you happy
If it's gonna let us be
If it's gonna hold us steady
Then it's what I need
It's what I want
'Cause I want you, I need you

Your voice brought us forever
But with work and fame and family, we use our minds
To light some fires
Our choices bound together
Saw the world, made history
We're living free and honestly

So, we share this bed
Rather than lying more in it
Pull the threads
But just don't set fire to this

If it's gonna make you happy
If it's gonna set us free
If it's gonna hold us steady
Then it's what we need
If it's gonna make you happy
If it's gonna let us be
If it's gonna hold us steady
Then it's what I need
It's what I want
'Cause I want you, I need you

Still their faces come to haunt me
The ghosts I have to share you with
Oh, still to me they're never walking
In this garden that we've built

Oh, if it's gonna make you happy
If it's gonna set us free
If it's gonna hold us steady
Then it's what we need
If it's gonna make you happy
If it's gonna let us be
If it's gonna hold us steady
Then it's what I need
Oh-oh, oh-oh
It's what I want
'Cause I want you
I need you
