If The Creek Don`t Rise Lyrics

Well i get tied when you cross my mind
You won`t let me back in, but i won`t stop trying
i try to untie the knot, but it`s tied pretty tight
oh that knot in your heart when you left that night

Cause love is like water and water get`s rough
I've had all i can stand but i can`t get enough
let me love you again
give me one more try
if the gods lord`s willing and the creek don`t rise

Someone remind me not to be reminded of you
Because everything`s fine god i wish it were true
And you run from me like i`m the edge of death
Honey please stop running and catch your breath

Cause love is like water
And water get`s rough
You can drown underneath the surface
so keep you`re head up
Let me love you again
I think we`ll make is this time
If the good lord`s willing and the creek don`t rise

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I love reading with what little time I have off. I’m pretty busy with my work and my guy here in Atlanta, but I love music and sometimes I like reading the lyrics when I’ve had a few drinks. Lol. This song to me, sounds like a guy that really messed up maybe with his wife I think. He’s asking her to please forgive him and let him try again. But this time she’s running away from him instead of taking him back like she always had. And he’s perplexed because she had never done that that’s what I think anyway. The untitler not part is pretty telling that they were married. Reminds me of a guy I saw that was a lot older than me. I hope one day he can forgive himself for what he did to his wife and children and make amends with them. I’m gonna be angry with me if you know I said that’s but I know he was on honest with me about what he had done. He tried to hide it but I know I could see it in his eyes and it’s her that he loves he’s so ignorant when he thinks nobody can see it. Sex and being with people is a cover-up for him I talk to my parents extensively about this and I only hope he realizes family is everything. My parents taught me and my brothers that family comes first and I know when I have a family one day that will be the case. I could never be with a man that has already showed his true colors and that he has given up and left his family Already I want someone with a clean slate. I hope he makes amends he’s not exactly young like I am. I’m sure they put an off a lot of time with her and his family is a mess and I pray every single week for him. I love him but just as a friend I am not in love with him but he is obsessed with me and I hope he gets over it someday because he is not in love with me either.
