River Of Love

She had to leave me

Said she had some place to go

I knew her heart was searching for its home

So what’s to do when you let go of flying falcons

Except to watch them disappear ‘til there no more

And as she flew well I called out

And I knew she heard her lover shout

‘Cause she tipped her wings before the fade

Oh the sun may set yet another day

I’ll be there for the rising one

And maybe it’s true you’ve gone away

But I’ll be waiting by the River of Love

I’ll be waiting by the River of Love

The heart’s a funny thing

Sometimes it never shakes

What happened to that friend that went before

And it may ponder it may wander ‘til it finds

Love’s secret phone to call upon that soul

And just sometimes you never know

You may be dreaming but you feel aglow

And you hope one day she will return

Chorus

Another day goes rolling through my heart

As if it was another empty cup

And though I’ve wandered through these fields I’ve known before

I will never give up ‘til I see you again

I may never give up at all

And so I will take my precious time to hang around

And I’ll count the beats of my heart one by one

And even if it’s just some silly game I’m playing

Deep down I know it isn’t just for fun

‘Cause when there’s a will then there’s a way

And if I have to kneel and pray

Then I’ll kneel here and pray away

Chorus

We criticized you

We recognized you

I memorized you

And I eulogized you

I loved you more than you’ll ever know

Man I hated to see you go

I’ll be waiting by the River of Love
