	This river is a mighty one
	I have to trust its flow
	But if you asked me where it's taking us
	I wouldn't say I know
	But I will go there willingly
	She's never led me astray
	And I've only been bruised
	When I've refused to get out of my way
	So I wouldn't stop the rain
	No I wouldn't stop the rain
	What good would it do?
	And I wouldn't trade the pain
	Or mess with the math that created the path
	That eventually led to you, my love,
	I give you my love
	And when I say love
	I mean a love that will stay love
	Through every change that could betray love
	The vicissitudes of time
	I mean mature love, unconditional and pure love
	The kind of love I feel with your love
	I want you to feel with mine.
	And if I had to do it over now
	I am certain of one thing
	When the carrousel came back around
	I would still reach for that ring
	I would still reach for your arms, my love,
	Despite the pain that reach would bring
	I would still say 'yes' to life and love
	And accept the offering
	And I wouldn't stop the sun
	No I wouldn't stop the sun
	What good would it do?
	And I would rather stand than run
	And squarely face the warmth and grace
	Of a blessing when it comes, my love,
	I give you my love.
	And when I say love – I mean a love that will stay love
	Through every change that could betray love
	The vicissitudes of time
	I mean mature love, unconditional and pure love
	The kind of love I feel with your love
	I want you to feel with mine.
