Mighty Rivers

Darlin' wake up now, I'm makin' a promise that I'm gonna keep
I'll never give up now, when love is a passion that can't go to sleep
Until the mighty rivers, until the mighty oceans dry up, I'll be your man
Until the mighty rivers all run dry and fade away girl you understand
They tell you there's no chance, for love to be stable when everything shakes
It only took the one glance, for my heart to tremble and my soul to quake
Until the mighty rivers, until the mighty oceans dry up, I'll be your man
Until the mighty rivers all run dry and fade away girl you understand
Till the Mighty rivers ooh mighty rivers,
ooh can you hear me as you run into my back
And the customs never clear me, they want to put me behind black
Oh darlin wake uh up now, before there's no sunshine left up in the sky
I'll never give up now, let's shed all the teardrops and let our hearts dry
Until the mighty rivers, until the mighty oceans dry up, I'll be your man
Until the mighty rivers all run dry and fade away girl you understand
Until the mighty rivers, the mighty rivers, the mighty rivers,
the mighty rivers, the mighty rivers, the mighty rivers,
Until the mighty rivers, until the mighty oceans dry up, I'll be your man
Until the mighty rivers all run dry and fade away girl you understand
Till the mighty rivers oooooh mighty rivers
