Lyrics:

[English]

Hold me, don't hold me down

Carry me, but keep my feet on the ground

That storm is coming down hard

I'm your shelter every time it starts

But if you leave me, I'll be moving on

You'll have a hard time drying when the fire is gone

I'll hold you, I won't hold you down, yeah

I'll carry you, but keep your feet on the ground

You're the storm and I'm the Murray darlin'

You keep me going

Every time I'm dry

But if you leave me

I'll be moving on (I'll live on)

But have a hard time running

When the weather is gone

Hold me, don't hold me down

Carry me, but keep my feet on the ground, yeah

I'll hold you, I won't hold ya down

I'll carry you, but keep your feet on the ground

In so many ways

I just keep pulling

But you're pushing me away

Me away

Hold me, don't hold me down

Carry me, but keep my feet on the ground

I'll hold you, I won't hold ya down

Carry you, but keep your feet on the ground, yeah

Hold me, don't hold me down

Love me, but don't let me drown
