Along the River

All this time I've wondered
What to do
There is a whole in my heart
It belongs to you
All those silver nights turn to blue
Cause now we're through

I walk along the river baby
Thinking about the day we had
Looking at the river babe
It's got a hold on me

Walk along the river baby
Everybody's gone but me
Life is like a river babe
It's all runs out to sea

I'll just have to lay you down
Till some better times, I will make it fine
I'll just have to lay you down
At the break of dawn
I'll be moving on

Looking at the river baby
I still can see you golden curls
Embraces have gone bitter
And they're branded on my skin

I should have read between the lines
But could it ever change your mind
It made me feel so lonely lonely lonely
But I'll get by

I just have to lay you down
One day at a time, I will make it fine
I just have to lay you down
At the break of dawn
I'll be moving on

There were times I broke down in silence
There were times I ran out of patience
Waiting for a sign from you

There were times I was hardly living
There were times I was ghostly shadow
Oh oh just for the love of you

I walk along the river baby
Walk along the river now
I walk along the river, and I think of you
The shimmer of the wavelets
I watch them rolling by
Taking all my troubles away

Oh I am just walking on the river baby
Oh oh oh the river of time
