try to keep you close to me

but life got in between

try to square not being there

but think that i should have been

hold back the river

let me look in your eyes

hold back the river

so i can stop for a minute

and see where you hide

hold back the river

hold back lonely water

low deep water

won't you let us wander

let us hold each other

lonely water lonely water

won't you let us wander

let us hold each other

home back the river

let me look in your eyes

hold back the river

so i can stop for a minute

and see where you hide

hold back the river

hold back lonely water

lonely water won't you let us wander

let us hold each other
