Don't Try To Catch A River
When she flows
(Don't try to catch a river)
No one will ever catch her.
When love goes,
(don't try to catch your lover)
For love is a kind of river,
River flows over rocks and walls,
and I likes in a while,
She seems so free, so far away from the sky.
When she flows,
(Don't try to catch a river)
No one will ever catch her.
When love goes,
(Don't try to catch your lover)
For love is a kind of river.
Love will leave ... at sunrise,
and I likes in a while,
They seem to be so ashamed of the size,
Don't you try
Don't you try
Don't you try
Don't you try River
River
River
When she flows,
(Don't try to catch a river)
No one will ever catch her.
When love goes,
(Don't try to catch your lover)
For love is a kind of river.,
And I likes in a while,
Why don't lovers bring their ...
River
River
River
Oehh ... River...
Oehh ... River...
River...
