Lyrics

[Intro]

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 1]

She's a river, she's a flame

She's a wild horse you'll never tame

Everything that drew you in, oh-oh-oh-oh

You love her freedom, you love the ride

Until it's pushing on your pride

You feel it getting under your skin, oh-oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]

Are you gonna be the wall

Or the way over?

Will you make her feel small?

Can you love her enough

To lift her up, oh?

When she's looking back

On all the things you told her

Are you gonna be the wall

Or the way over?

[Verse 2]

Be a blessing, or a curse

Make it better, make it worse

She's gonna run with or without you

So before you say the words you're about to

[Chorus]

Are you gonna be the wall

Or the way over?

Will you make her feel small?

Can you love her enough

To lift her up, oh?

When she's looking back

On all the things you told her

Are you gonna be the wall

Or the way over?

[Bridge]

Careful what you say

'Cause words have a way of staying

In the back of your mind

If you try to rein her in

Put a saddle on the wind

Yeah, she'll be leaving you behind

[Refrain]

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]

Are you gonna be the wall

Or the way over?

Will you make her feel small?

Can you love her enough

To lift her up, oh?

When she's looking back

On all the things you told her

Are you gonna be the wall

Or the way over?

Are you gonna be the wall

Or the way over?

[Outro]

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh
