The River

[Verse 1]
Oh Darlin', I have loved, I have once loved long ago
But never have I longed for one simple touch, I know
I waited by the river and watched its gentle flow
But I haven't been so deep to find what lies below

[Verse 2]
Oh Darlin', I was lost, I was lost once in the past
But never have I wandered quite so far so fast
Well I'd question my direction but I've got no one to ask
And I'll follow if you'll lead me and show me my way back

[Verse 3]
Oh Darlin', I have found what I've been searchin' for so long
And I've heard of those who've lost what once had made them strong
And I've had my share of lonely, but now my lonely is gone
And I know now where to find you and with you is where I belong

[Verse 4]
Oh Darlin', I've seen eyes that I could look right through
And I've seen those of deception and seen those of the truth
And if you'll meet me by the water then I will wait for you
And we'll walk down in the river like only lovers do
We'll walk down in the river like only lovers do
