| When the river don't run and the night won't fall | |
| When I fear the touch of the highway's call | |
| When I close my eyes and the dreams won't come | |
| When the world has set me free, will you still be with me, my loverman? | |
| When the moon turns red and the sun burns black | |
| When the reaper's whip, falls across my back | |
| Will you lay me down on a bed of stone? | |
| In that long and silent sleep, will you be with me? | |
| What if I just go flying away? | |
| What would you say? | |
| Would you wait a million years? | |
| Would you cry a million tears for me? | |
| Or would you take my hand? | |
| Would you fly away with me? | |
| Or would you be with me, loverman? | |
| When the hour glass is broken | |
| And the final word is spoken | |
| When fate has lost its power | |
| This word will still be ours | |
| Loverman, oh, my loverman, yeah | |
| What if I just go flying away? | |
| What would you say? | |
| Would you steal me from the cold? | |
| Would you lead me to my soul again? | |
| And when we reach the end, when we face eternity | |
| Would you be with me, my loverman? | |
| Oh, loverman, yeah | |
| When the river don't run and the night won't fall | |
| When I fear the touch of the highway's call | |
| When I close my eyes and the dreams won't come | |
| And the world has set me free, yeah | |
| When the moon turns red and the sun burns black | |
| When the reaper's whip across my back | |
| Will you lay me down? Will you lay me down on a bed of stone? | |
| In that long and silent sleep | |
| Loverman, loverman, oh, loverman | |
| Loverman, yeah | |
| Loverman, yeah |
