Tried to keep you close to me,
But life got in between
Tried 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
see where you hide
HOLD BACK THE RIVER, hold back
Tried to keep you close to me,
But life got in between
Tried 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
see where you hide

Lonely water, lonely 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
