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
