Along The River

All this time I’ve wondered what to do

There’s a hole 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

Thinkin’ ‘bout the days we had

Lookin’ 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 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 movin’ on

Lookin’ at the river, baby

I still can see your 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 just movin’ 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 a ghostly shadow

Just for the love of you

I walk along the river, baby

Walk along the river and

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’m just walkin’ on the river, baby

Oh, the river of time
